"sooooo much better than adobe"
Version: Nuance PDF Reader 7
Pros
it works great (i'm using xp). i've never had any kind of issue with it.
Cons
i haven't experienced a single one. i can't see how anyone could rate this software less than perfect. i haven't read the other reviews, so i can't domment on them.
Summary
i am so dissatisfied with adobe for their twisted marketing strategies. nuance does everything i need a pdf reader to do, without obnoxious marketing gimmicks.

"I could not uninstall it by normal techniques."
Version: Nuance PDF Reader 7
Pros
I don't know. I simply wanted to uninstall the program--not to use it. See below.
Cons
I tried to uninstall it in the same manner that I have sucessfully uninstalled hundreds of programs in the past. I get a window saying "Do you want to allow the following program to update the software on this computer?" It doesn't matter whether I click "yes" or "no" THE PROGRAM WILL NOT UNINSTALL.
Summary
Now I am stuck with a program that I do not want on my computer.

"A reader with all features but installs extra software."
Version: Nuance PDF Reader 7
Pros
The reader is comparable with foxit reader, you can search pdf documents or entire directories with pdf files for keywords. Search is really well implemented. You can also see layers, looks good too.
Cons
Installs a program called software updater and doesn't notify you about it. This program has an autoruns entry and is meant for autoupdating the nuance software. You cannot uninstall it unless you uninstall nuance. It also place a shortcut on desktop
Summary
It's good software but there are good alternatives. I really don't like software with sneaky behaviour. The autoupdater program is not from nuance but from this company: http://www.flexerasoftware.com. There's no uninstaller and what is more when you close that program, it doesn't exit it still runs in the background. (it becomes windowless). Nuance place a desktop shortcut without asking first and it's options are well rather limited. I didn't check if the program itselfs phone home, there are no privacy options in Nuance which is strange. Bottomline: It's good software but for me it's sneaky behaviour spoils it.

""Fill out and save PDF forms".........DOES NOT WORK"
Version: Nuance PDF Reader 7
Pros
Great reader.
Cons
CANNOT FILL OUT FORMS. Convert function.... also DOES NOT WORK.
Summary
I expected a lot more from Nuance. Everything beyond "reader" was vapor. It wasted lots of my time.

"Fill out and save PDF forms, NOT"
Version: Nuance PDF Reader 7
Pros
It is a good reader.
Cons
That is all it is, a good reader.
Spent a couple of days and found no way to "Fill out and save PDF forms".
Trying to use the convert PDF function for 2 days only to get the message "Service is unavailable".Summary
If you want a PDF reader only this is a good one.
