If someone knows how to disable this fuckery, please tell me or i have to install adobe acrobat, it makes me crazy as it floats on all the open PDFs, covering text/content
Is this FoxIt? What the hell, FoxIt used to be cool.
Anyway, if all you need is a .pdf reader and don't need any editing or form fill BS, just uninstall all your .pdf readers because they're totally redundant these days. Firefox and all other browsers can natively read .pdf's. If you need to mess with the content of a .pdf, Inkscape (open source) does a competent job of taking them apart and letting you edit them nowadays.
I'm of the opinion that bloated memory hog .pdf applications full of subscriptions and ads and other bullshit can just die in a fire. I haven't actually needed one for years.
There's also okular. Basically anything that the kde foundation puts out will invariably be cross platform and pretty good.
I'll give them both a try.
The main issue that I've run into is that foxit has a pretty decent signing system for signing PDFs which comes in handy from time to time and foxit and adobe both have batch editing for PDFs which is really handy for taking a bunch of random documents and sizing them to be all the same view size and rotating pages and the like to make everything nice and uniform for sharing with others.
FoxIt is Chinese. If you don't care about your data potentially being transmitted across the globe, it's a well working software.
Firefox added a decent signing feature. idk bout batch editing tho
I used to use Foxit for the longest time, but Firefox's pdf reader has improved so much lately that I actually prefer it.
I like to have things not in firefox. It makes it easier to manage the 50 windows and tabs that I have open
But be warned; pdfjs has a bunch of XSS vulnerabilities every month, which aren't possible outside the browser environment.
My main issue with browser PDF reading is that I can't compile and apply my signature on PDF with them, which are the main reasons I'm still using Foxit.
I've had assignments that involve editing a PDF template. So far, LibreOffice Draw has worked for me.
You can just sign using your mouse/trackpad, and then copy and paste the signature to fill in the entire form.
This doesn't cover digital signatures (cryptographic signatures with RSA/ECDSA)
Why not just use acrobat?
Because Fuck Adobe.
Fair enough, but the free version of acrobat is still a good product for basic PDF functions, and doesn't benefit them at all by using it.
For the record, I use FF 99% of the time, and GIMP or LibreDraw if I need to edit them.
Yeah, I used to use it to fix my RPG PDFs. (Seriously, it's astounding how many publishers either omit or completely fuck up bookmarks.) I found out it went to shit when trying to help someone else do the same, and the newer free version was significantly cut down.
