Not many free PDF viewers and readers offer the plethora of functions and features present in Foxit Reader. More than just a simple PDF viewer, this free utility allows you to create new PDF files, both from scratch and from an existing Office document. Moreover, you can edit existing PDF files, annotate them, add comments, rotate their pages, print them out, etc., all from a familiar and intuitive ribbon-based interface.

Put a great part of the functionality of the most popular PDF free reading tool into an Office-like interface, and you’ll end up with Foxit Reader. The already familiar ribbon interface is packed up with top-quality features that will open, edit, create, display, protect, and help you share PDF files easily. You can have as many files open at one time as required – each will be assigned in a new tab, and you can move from one another just by clicking on it.

You can highlight text, add annotations, copy text and paste it in another document, insert images and assign actions to them, include artwork with or without a comment on your PDF files, etc. It comes with a Word-like word count feature that you won’t easily find in similar PDF tools, not even in Acrobat Reader DC. Besides, you can handwrite your own signature and insert it on any document or use a digital signature for it. Finally, PDF files can be password-protected using this same tool to guarantee their privacy. more
