Foxit came out with an updated free PDF reader recently, so I thought I would give it a try. I am quite impressed with the ease of use and the options available. Foxit Reader 2.2 is available for several operating systems such as Windows, Windows Mobile, Linux and U3. Foxit Reader 2.2 takes up less space on my hard drive and uses less processing power. It starts fast and has more usable options than my previous PDF reader. It doesn’t try to connect to the internet every time I open it. I especially like that feature (or should I say non-feature)… I find the commentating tools useful. Especially the highlighting and notes tool. I can easily switch back and forth between the tools and reading mode using the toolbar icons. To change non-clickable links in the PDF to clickable links in Foxit Reader 2.2, you will need to edit the preferences in Foxit Reader 2.2. To do this

• Click on Edit
• Click on Preferences
• Click on the General Tab
• Check the “Create links from URLs” checkbox
• Click OK

To see what page you are on in the PDF you will need to activate the status bar

• Click on View in the Menu Bar
• Select Status Bar

The Status Bar will then appear at the bottom of your PDF.

Update: The left and right click functionality for navigation in full screen mode is now available in Foxit Reader 2.3. The preference “Show Status Bar” now works with my Vista and my Windows XP operating systems with Foxit Reader 2.3.

Unlike my previous PDF Reader, when in Full Screen mode, left clicking on the page doesn’t advance the document to the next page. To navigate in Full Screen mode there are several options. I can navigate the pages with the Hand tool or use the scroll wheel on my mouse, as in the default view. I am unable to get the preference “Show Status bar” in the preference window on the Full Screen tab to work on my Vista operating system. It may be a problem with Vista. I will have to look into it with Foxit Reader support. All other options in Full Screen Preferences work fine. There are other settings and preferences you can change to your liking in the preferences window also. Foxit Reader is my choice for a multi featured PDF reader.

I’ve been considering switching from cable internet service to DSL. I have heard that DSL can sometimes be faster than cable internet service, according to how many people are on the same line as you are. Both are faster than dial-up. This video from About.com:Videos describes some features and differences between cable internet and DSL service. One thing that I found interesting in the video is that DSL is considered more secure than cable internet. That’s something to consider when making a choice between Cable and DSL Internet service, considering all the security issues there are nowadays.
