Useless on a Mac since Preview has more features and is more user friendly. For Windows there isn't a better option.

No I read adobe reader and foxit reader both are fine but 0zSpit you know adobe reader is more clear and it make easy to read ebooks and very clear did you download newest version of it? if not download frnd it is really cool for use to reading and more functioning than old one. I use foxit because It is easy to edit ebooks and do some changes to them hehe...... I never use it to read but it is really good when we talking about its options.

Adobe reader isn't fine. Reader 8 takes 133MB of hard drive space, and takes forever to load. For a PDF reader? It takes my Pentium 150 laptop less time to load Foxit than it does a new machine to load Adobe. Other good options to Foxit: PDF-XChange viewer comes with some nice free annotation tools that don't leave an "evaluation" watermark and open in Adobe. Plus I find the program more stable than Foxit when annotating. SumatraPDF is another small footprint reader though it isn't feature rich.

Adobe Reader requires too much space (it would be ok for the professional version, but not for reader). It's slow, bloated, and doesn't display anything correctly. FoxIt reader is MUCH better.

PDF XChange Viewer is outstanding! You can highlight, underline, type on and more. It loads fast, works well with Firefox and IE and is free. Foxit is fine, but PDF XChange Viewer beats it hands down.
