I need one on the new DAW and Reader seems bloated and I'd like to avoid "air" in the install.
 
I'm thinking it's time for a change.
 
Suggestions?

Chrome or Firefox.

Foxit reader is good for pdf and was all I used for a while. But since i went with Win8 I use the new reader app. It works well, now. At first it was too good. But they tweaked it and it's alright now. So that's my fav at the moment.
 
I turn all that update stuff off.

Sumatra is another great one.

Foxit is my go-to, but I like Nitro for the ability to insert signatures into docs.

Is it still full screen only? I hated it with a passion and installed Acrobat.

Are you guys saying that Win8 has a built in reader or that you are using the latest Adobe Acrobat Reader in Win 8?
 
Does Chrome have a built in reader? I thought Firefox used the Adobe plugin and I assumed Chrome did too.
 
Foxit looks interesting.
 
 
Thanks!

PDF-XChanger Viewer. Has been one of the best alternatives for Acrobat Reader for a long time (according to a lot of websites/reviews).

You only have to make sure to untick the unwanted toolbar...

Foxit is great, but don't let it update itself. I had an issue with that on an older computer that I'm guessing the Foxit developeer overlooked. When there is an update, I just download it and install it manually.

Chrome has its own built it. Not sure on Firefox though.
