A Sly Suite of PDF Tools
By Jill Bauerle
Does your PDF software leave you enough time to fetch a cup of coffee when opening files? Instead of sitting like a hen in front of your screen, try Foxit's quick-footed PDF tools. Foxit develops a number of programs for managing, reading, writing, and converting PDF files. At 1MB, the free Foxit Reader downloads instantly and runs without installation. No more "welcome" screens and agonizing waits. Foxit Reader supports Chinese, Korean, and Japanese character sets once you download a special plugin. Another program, Foxit Reader Pro, has added features like a typewriter tool for inserting text, a note tool for inserting comments, and text-marking tools for highlighting, underlining, and striking out text. With Foxit Reader Pro, you can also draw lines and shapes, convert pages to pure text, and browse files in the Foxit Library. Other Foxit programs include the Reader for Pocket PC, PDF Editor (which enables you to freely edit text and images in PDF files), PDF Text Viewer, and PDF Page Organizer. Foxit's tools require Windows for the most part, but Foxit Reader can also run in Linux. Foxit Reader is free; Foxit Pro costs $39. Check Web site for pricing on other Foxit programs.
