I do have to say that Adobe 9 is faster than past versions, but FoxIt is still my preferred reader. Thanks for the comment…totally agree as well.

Foxit is a great tool for PDFs. Even on much better machines than the Win98 boxes. I've been using it on XP, Vista, and 2000 for a long time now. I've often wondered what Adobe is thinking, making the Adobe reader so cumbersome. If you're trying to propagate a technology like the Portable Document Format in order to sell your higher-end products, like Acrobat, why make the entry point (Adobe Reader) so bulky and slow? Whatever. I don't work in the marketing department at Adobe. Maybe I should. Cheers, karl A. Krogmann Yeah. Foxit is a great tool for PDFs. Even on much better machines than the Win98 boxes.

I found it to be outstanding! The only negative aspect is that I don't get to take a nap any more while waiting for the Adobe Reader to open. I guess you can't have everything here in life. HAPPY NEW YEAR! Please keep on keeping safe and well there. Yours, ever faithfully, Thomas DALBY, SWEDEN Tuesday 1 January 2008

Dear Rick and Adam,

Thank you for the tip to try the Foxit PDF Reader.

I found it to be outstanding!

The only negative aspect is that I don’t get to take a nap any more while waiting for the Adobe Reader to open. I guess you can’t have everything here in life.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Please keep on keeping safe and well there.

Yours, ever faithfully,
Thomas

I installed Fox It, but it does not have the capability (that I can see) to "Print Current View" if I have zoomed in on a document. Is there a way to print only the section of a document I have zoomed to? Otherwise, it looks like I'll have to put Adobe on the computer. Thanks, Lisa Roberts Hi Rick,
