computer software geeks, I have a Q:

[enigmatic]

Is there an alternative pdf. reader to Adobe Acrobat out there? Preferably freeware, but I'll take any reccomendations; thanks!

4. No problem..

It loads very fast.

2. Xpdf for UNIX platforms, more than one freebie pdf viewer

is included with KDE and Gnome desktop environments as an integrated component.

GSview may work for you on Windows (if you do Windows). GSview would require an installation of Ghostscript. I have no idea how well Gsview works for pdfs nor advice on the installation of it or its dependencies on Windows.

5. Thanks!

I'm pretty good at finding this kind of stuff, but I was drawing a blank tonight...

6. Just out of curiousity...

what's the problem with the free Adobe Reader?

(aside from the latest versions being huge and having possible security problems...)

7. Thanks for asking this question

I've also been looking for an alternative to acrobat. It takes forever to load and always freezes up my computer. :eyes:
