Thanks.  I really appreciate experience based recommendations ...
 
So far Foxit is doing what it should do and nothing more

Hi,
 
I find Adobe redundant and boring ... you can do the same thing in Word or in my favorite ... Open Office.

Which specific OO app do PDF files display in?  In Libre, they get routed to Draw.
 
Either way, MS Office, Libre and OO seem a bit heavyweight for reading PDFs to me.

Foxit is the best replacement I have used so far. For my purposes, it has streamlined dealing with "secure files" where you can't combine etc.; I "print" the target pdf with Foxit which essentially strips the security features of the file, then I can do what ever I do with other unsecured files, works a treat.
 

After a few days use, I can't think of a reason to move on from Foxit.  I like it better than the Adobe reader it's replacing.
