So I switched to PDF X-Change Editor (free version), which has it quirks, but at least it is designed by half-decent people who think about the user’s needs first, not about whatever the last trends in software marketing might be.Īlso, I recommend PDF X-Change Lite, by the same publisher, Tracker Software. This is already bad enough, but if you shave off even more usable height with a Ribbon, you should be hanged upside down. You never have enough vertical space on a computer nowadays, because monitors are designed to accomodate manufacturers, not users. The Ribbon is mostly an abomination (it puts prettiness before usability, because yes, the damn thing is cute), but it’s all the more so in a blasted pdf reader, where the document is paramount, for God’s sake. I was a Foxit lover for a long time, then they threw a spanner in the works by introducing a sneaky way to make you upload your pdfs on their cloud, without you realising it (that raised an uproar I don’t know if they sticked with this daft idea) also, they got Microsofty and forced the dreaded Ribbon upon the exploited hordes. The program's advanced search functionality may highlight all search results in a PDF file for instance, and users may not search for instances that match any of the keywords. This is an automatic feature that will "reflow a PDF document" so that it is displayed in a single column matching the width of the document pane so that it can be read without having to scroll horizontally.įoxit Software improved several features of Foxit Reader in the new version as well.
Reflow upon navigation is another new usability feature. Ctrl-Shift-Tab - Move to previous open document tabįoxit Reader 9.0 supports a hundred or so single-key accelerators in total.Shift-D - Cycle through drawing markup commands.Shift-M - Cycle through multimedia commands.Here is a short list of available single-key accelerators: Most require a single-key tab, some a modifier key. The user manual lists all single-key accelerators that Foxit Reader 9.0 users may use.
