What is Reddit's opinion of SumatraPDF?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

SumatraPDF. Including a font it's about 10 MB, open source and it's available portable. Can also open most ebook formats. It's also lightning fast compared to Adobe.

Only cons are: slows down on massive embedded images (artbooks) and doesn't handle printing as good in some edge cases.

Reading from deviantart is annoying. So I made something.

Here the thing in cb7 file https://drive.google.com/open?id=11pmzCm7jqZL9PkQx54M-etFr1c-ye2I6
I think I got the pages in right order.

If you don't have anything that can open it grab Sumatra PDF Reader.

Foxit was really good some years ago, now it's kinda bloated and not lightweight at all. For a better alternative I would recommend Sumatra PDF, it's portable and minimalistic.

Si quieren cambiar el programa para ver fotos de windows les recomiendo FastStone

Llevo un par de meses ocupandolo y supero mis expectativas.

ED: Si quieren algo para PDFs que tenga "modo nocturno" les recomiendo Sumatra PDF

Si entran a configuraciones avanzadas pueden cambiar el color del fondo. Yo lo tengo en gris y es mucho más cómodo para trabajar de noche.

May I suggest Sumatra PDF reader?

It's free, open source, lightning fast and only 5MB. It's not as 'feature rich' as Acrobat Reader, but nowadays that's just a synonym for bloated anyway.

I like it! That's my primary PDF viewer.

It's just a common ebook file standard. There's many wares available to read the format. Sumatra can read them. I myself like plain old .pdf files out of simplicity. If I were a tablet user that would be different though.

SRDs are great. I will say that pdf's suck a lot less if you use a decent PDF reader. Scrolling through an adventure/module sucks in Acrobat.

I recommend Sumatra, but honestly there are probably tons of good choices besides Acrobat or your web browser.

Bitdefender is wrong if you got it from here - https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html

You can get it from Ninite as well.

Sumatra. Dead simple and fast, no dictionary.
Icecream. Copy, Translate, Search, $

If you use Sumatra PDF, you can go to the hamburger menu -> view -> Facing, and then the menu -> View -> Presentation. That'll display it exactly as in your drawing.

EDIT: My bad, presentation mode only displays single pages. Just select Fullscreen instead and then close the sidebar.

You can edit PDFs in Open Office Draw.

Also, Sumatra PDF is a FOSS is a PDF, ePub, MOBI, CHM, XPS, DjVu, CBZ, CBR reader for Windows reader for Windows. https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html

Sumatra PDF. Extremely light-weight and can open several other document extensions. It lacks features like editing, annotations etc., but does its job beautifully.

You sent people to the Microsoft store, reading problems in Win10, not many can make it there.

And what have you against Sumatra PDF reader Link it's free and does what one needs.

I have a surface book, but that's not what I came to recommend. If you have any laptop, download Sumatra. It is lightyears ahead of every other pdf reader I've used. Lightning fast and easy to use.

Calibre is great if you want to admin your eBooks and write/read to/from an Ibook device (e.g. Kindle), but for a FAST PDF and epub reader you might try Sumatra: https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html

Sumatra PDF open PDF, ePub, Mobi, CBZ and CBR among other things and are very light weight.
It may not have all the features you want though. https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html

Calibre will work fine, but it's kind of like the iTunes of ebooks - good if you want to manage a library of them, but if you just want to read one, there's smaller alternatives.

I use SumatraPDF - mostly because I want a lightweight PDF reader instead of installing Adobe (although Chrome takes care of that these days) and it handles ebook formats as well.

Still, I generally prefer reading epubs on my phone or Kindle rather than on a monitor...

For the comics and stuff like that (i.e. CBR, CBZ), I use Cover. They have a free and a paid version, the difference is that the paid version can "discover" more books. I ended up buying it, it's a nice app and gets the job done effectively. They mention that they can read EPUB too, but only the pictures inside (which is kinda pointless, imo).

To read EPUB and other ebooks, I'm testing Freda, but I'm not very happy with the library interface, it's a bit too crowded imo. The Cover approach is much better. I think there was another good epub app for Windows, but I can't remember which one.

And I prioritize "modern" apps (windows 10 apps) instead of x86 apps (like Sumatra PDF and so on), because of the touch interface.

Don't look at PDFs in internet browsers, it's slow, clunky, and you're losing a lot of features other software has.

If you're looking for something free, and lightweight just for reading, like say you don't need all the features of Adobe's bloated software, I personally have been using Sumatra for many years and never had a problem.

Can't you just print in Acrobat?

If this is LPT: Use a better PDF reader, then take a look at SumatraPDF, also is fine for reading cbr/cbz files.

SumatraPDF. It's a PDF reader with no bullshit. It doesn't try to be... whatever Adobe PDF's trying to be. It doesn't have the feature bloat and sporadic interface changes of Foxit. It's just a small, fast reader with the features you need.

The only downside is that it doesn't let you fill out forms, so I keep Foxit around for the once a year I need to do that.

SumatraPDF (https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html) is the best PDF reader, IMHO, and the most versatile document handler you can find for free - it's the VLC of documents.

"Sumatra PDF is a free and open-source document viewer that supports many document formats including: Portable Document Format (PDF), Microsoft Compiled HTML Help (CHM), DjVu, EPUB, FictionBook (FB2), MOBI, PRC, Open XML Paper Specification (OpenXPS, OXPS, XPS), and Comic Book Archive file (CB7, CBR, CBT, CBZ). If Ghostscript is installed, it supports PostScript files. It is developed exclusively for Microsoft Windows, but it can run under Linux using Wine." [Wikipedia]

Just so you're aware viewing PDF's in and of themselves is pretty safe. Opening it in the native dropbox renderer or Chrome is fine since those are sandboxed. The real danger comes from opening it in Adobe Reader, which is where all the exploits are.

So don't use adobe reader because it's insecure and also sucks.

I use https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html which is also nice because it doesn't support the more interactive PDF features which tend to be the dangerous ones.

That all being said, don't download any actual random exe programs from the internet and run those :).

I did some research, and it turns out the problem is that the PDFs were created at a huge physical page size (328.08 × 226.88"). This is in violation of the PDF specification, which states that the maximum page size is 200 × 200".

I was able to work around the problem by using Sumatra PDF, which is able to open and print PDF files with such invalid sizes.

But really, the PDFs should be regenerated at the correct size (which, I'm guessing based on the aspect ratio, is A4).

>I don't know how to open cbz files tho, and all the readers I've tried to install to do that have been very fishy.

If you are using Windows you could try Sumatra PDF there is a book view allowing full spreads.

for a viewer i use Sumatra, it is very light and it work, oh and it's open source :D

But no sure it can combine multiple pdf, i haven't this kind of function

I haven’t used it in a while, but if memory serves, I believe Sumatra PDF works nicely. Not sure about the search capability, but figured I’d mention it. https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader.html

See if you have Adobe Acrobat Reader or Adobe Reader installed. Most corporations have that as their default PDF reader. Otherwise I'd ask your IT department what they can do or if there's an alternative PDF reader for your machine.

SumatraPDF is what I use on Windows. It's open source and the code can be viewed on GitHub.

Explorer allows for all manner of preview. Its tied to installed apps which means it is effectively limitless in support.

One program that adds PDF previewing to Explorer is Sumatra PDF
