jalaffa Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Foxit Reader is a free PDF document viewer and printer, with incredible small size, breezing-fast launch speed and amazingly rich feature set. In the past, you have to download a huge PDF Reader from another software company, go through a lengthy installation process and wait for an annoying splash window to disappear just to open a PDF document. Moreover, if you want to annotate a PDF document, you have to pay US$299 to buy that certain PDF software.Download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcs18 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 1.Added the option ¡°Read from Current Page¡± to the Read Out Loud feature, which makes the system read out the PDF content from current page to the end of the file.These are all features already existing in the Adobe versions. Glad that Foxit is gradually but surely getting each one of these functions, onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luar Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 This update of Foxit Reader 5.3.0.0423 has a problem (bug). If you use Firefox or Pale Moon browsers, and if you have an Hotmail account for e-mails, when you open hotmail, you can´t read, send or eliminate your e-mails. This problem is caused by Foxit reader plugin for Mozilla. If you deactivate the foxit reader plugin in Firefox or Pale Moon, you can use your hotmail account, or do not use this version 5.3.0.0423., instead use the older version. I spend a few time in google, searching for this update problem. I will wait for a new update without this bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
