Russian malware all over the place. Enjoy your botnet.

PDF-Xchange viewer, it is by far the fastest at rendering lines when idiots send me a fucking 10MB .pdf of a CAD drawing. Which happens quite often as there are alot of idiots in the world..

Everything else chokes when trying to re-draw all the lines in a detailed drawing every time you touch the zoom and you can't get anything done in a meaningful timeframe.
>>
SumatraPDF is the only correct answer
>>
Adobe Acrobat
>>
Kindle paperwhite.
>>
>>61034091
zathura + mupdf backend

>>
>>61034091
Summatra when I'm on shitdows
Evince when I'm on any Loonix distro.
>>
>>61034091
PDF XChange Viewer

very lightweight
>>
>>61035083
THIS.
Switched a year ago and it's great since it supports all the formats I want.
>>
Sumatra for reading

Nitro if I need to fill something out
>>
>>61034091
your mother
>>
chrome/chromium

(I'm not kidding, but I do feel bad)
>>
Is Foxit the only reader that lets you turn off the feature some PDFs use that causes the zoom to change every time you click a bookmark? That's annoying as hell when you want to use a 2-page view and it baffles me that Adobe's reader doesn't let you turn it off
>>
>>61035083
once you change the default colors, it's pretty comfy
>>
SumatraPDF on Winblows and Atril on Linux.
>>
>>61035083

>try to fill a form
>can't

and so you need to pdf readers
>>
Xreader
>>
>>61034091
is soda pdf good? its $1 on humble bundle rn
>>
Microsoft Edge

It's built in.

It's easy.
>>
>>61034091
firefox
>>
>>61037249
It's a reader, not an editor, fucktard.
>>
None. PDFs are harmful. Use postscript instead
>>
>>61034091
SumatraPDF on Windows
Skim on macOS
>>
>>61034091
I use okular.
1. It was the default on kde, so that is why I started to use it.
2. Pdf viewers I used before didn't automatically reload as well when you changed the file.
3. If I open a file, read a part of it and close it, the next time I open it, it starts where I left off.
4. I can easily change how much resources it should use vs how much it should load into memory.
5. It works with forms and annotations
6. It is free software.
>>
>>61038941
I use that because it is the default too. Came to kinda love it. Doesn't fuck with my normal workflow and lightweight and whatnot.

To be honest the best is probably preview.app on Mac though. It has that insert signature feature. Holy shit was that amazing.
>>
>>61034091
>>61036354
Evince on Linux and Windows. The only reason I stopped using Adobe Reader is it was starting to feel really stupid having to continuously turn off all the defaults.
>>
>>61034091
Adobe standard, bought it for $20 when I purchased my PC.
>>
Atril. Works just fine to open files. It's lightweight, and doesn't have the retarded GUI that Evince has since GTK3.
>>
hey what the fuck do you guys use to read ePubs
>>
>>61045377
Fucking sumatra.

Mupdf. It's a great no-bullshit pdf reader.
>>
>>61045377
Calibre
>>
mupdf, it's absolutely mint.
>>
>>61045683

>>
Sumatra and Okular.
>>61045377
The old Firefox epubreader addon, but since its last version I switched to Lucidor.
>>
>>61034091
SumatraPDF
>>
>>61037478
this
>>
>>61034091
evince, it does the job and comes with debian gnome by default
>>
>>61034091
SumatraPDF for everything from ebooks, PDF, cbz, and view gifs as stills.
Need to mess with configuration files to change all default colors to the way I like them for oddball formats.
