Editor's review of Adobe Reader 7.0

• 5.0 stars

• "A must-have"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Adobe Reader 7.0

The new version of this indispensable product doesn't introduce revolutionary changes, but it doesn't have to. As the low-end PDF reader, it simply keeps up with Acrobat Professional and Standard. This release adds the ability to play back embedded multimedia files in MP3, QuickTime, Macromedia Flash, Real, and Windows Media formats, as well as to submit Adobe PDF forms. It also replaces some of the icons in the default interface with optional, dockable toolbars. You might as well install this now before a Web site you visit prompts you to download it, because you'll need it.

  "Try FoxIt instead"

  by The Doober on April 6, 2005

  Pros: It works. No spyware or other junk.

  Cons: Very bloated. Try FoxIt if you want a slim 2MB alternative.

  "What else do we use?"

  by lapointe34 on January 19, 2006

  Pros: It's a standard, Adobe IS LIKE the ISO of pdfs, but the software itself works well.

  Cons: It seldomly freezes while loading, I know all Adobe apps have that simalir loading screen but it just crashes sometime.
