CNET Editors' review
PDF-XChange Viewer provides a host of useful features to go along with superior functionality in letting you view and mark up PDFs with ease. The software will open PDFs saved on your computer or you can download them directly with the app. Navigating the PDF once its open is straightforward, as well, and there are many navigation and editing tools available on the toolbar across the top of the window.
The interface of this app provides a lot of versatility without over-complicating the layout. Just about every tool you need for marking up and viewing your PDF is displayed at the top of the screen. We were impressed that you can customize this layout to minimize clutter by selecting the tools you do and don't want displayed from the Tools' drop-down menu. Options include comment and mark up tools, link tools, measuring tools, and zoom tools. Navigating the document, itself, is quick and convenient, with multiple options for how pages are displayed and how many are on the screen at a time.
Commenting is supported and easy to insert and you can e-mail a document directly from the app as long as you have a compatible mail program installed, as well. Another convenient feature is the search box at the top of the screen that provides quick access to various online sources such as Wikipedia, Bing, Google, Yahoo, and others. Overall, this is a great product with an intuitive interface and lots of helpful features.

"Great product! Nice editing features in their Editor."
Version: PDF-XChange Viewer 2.5.214
Pros
I really like this viewer. This company has an update that is an editor. I also really like there support staff. Those guys are EXTREEMLY quick to respond, when I bought their pro version (which is really well priced BTW!) the responded to my email in under a minute! Yeah I know! The features are really nice.
Cons
Better to get the free version through Tracker software's website (the creators of this program). Downloading through this site puts a whole lotta shyte on my PC when downloading it from other websites.
Summary
Overall extremely satisfied with the actual product and with Tracker's support.
