  1. I just tried Sumatra PDF on Windows for the first time and it blew my mind how fast it is on PDF rendering! It's totally becoming my default PDF reader for that OS!

  2. #SumatraPDF interface for comparison - a PDF reader as it was intended.

  3. @zinklink 推薦 #SumatraPDF , 工作看 pdf 或是電子書看 epub/mobi 都可以用哦~

  4. What _is_ it with modern #PDF readers that they eventually refuse to display pages of PDFs after you have used them for some time, and then you have to close the PDF and reload it?

    This isn't limited to #AcrobatReader , either - I have seen the same thing with #SumatraPDF .

    I've mostly seen this with #ttrpg PDFs, but not just with them either - and it also happens with my work notebook, so it's independent of any configuration I might have done on my own PC.

  5. In a shocking twist, someone decided that non-English #speakers deserve to use #SumatraPDF, the crowned jewel of Windows applications 🏆💾. Behold the harrowing tale of wrangling #C++ code to say "hello" in 72 languages—because nothing screams 'best use of time' like translating a comic book viewer 📚😂.

  6. 📜 Ah, a riveting tale of Adobe Reader's installer size, perfect for insomniacs! 😂 Who knew tracking #bloat across decades could be so thrilling? Meanwhile, #SumatraPDF remains a lithe gazelle in a world of digital hippos. 🦛📉

  7. Welchen #PDFReader verwendet ihr?
    Ich suche einen schnellen Reader mit dem man auch Anmerkungen mit Stift machen kann... Adobe Reader wird mir immer zu aufgeblasener.
    Habe auch #SumatraPdf getestet. Der ist schnell, man hat aber nur Textfelder für Anmerkungen erstellen.

    Gerne retröt 🔄

  8. Stavo cercando un lettore #PDF portatile per il mio PC da gioco (#Windows), #Foxit sembra piuttosto usato, quindi sono andato a cercarlo in rete.
    So che le versioni portatili contengono tutte le librerie e tutti i file necessari, ma 452 Mb!! Come è possibile?

    Così ho scaricato #SumatraPDF che pesa solo 15 Mb, è un solo eseguibile e basta.
    L'ho già installato sul mio notebook del lavoro ed è un buon lettore PDF che fa il suo dovere: aprire i file pdf.

    #pdfreader #software #windows

  9. Con el tema de la moderación y control innecesario de #Adobe de los documentos privados, recuerdo que #SumatraPDF funciona mejor que Acrobat Reader y no solo abre #PDF. Llevo años usándolo y creo que incluso es más ligero. Junto con 7zip para archivos comprimidos, forma parte de los programas que considero imprescindibles.

  10. @avolha co raz więcej powodów, by sprawdzić tą #SumatraPdf

    przynajmniej w końcu, będę mógł zagrać w: lucas-c.itch.io/undying-dusk 😏

    These are literally the only two pieces of software I miss after moving out of the Apple walled garden in 2014 (happy #fedora user since).
    #JabRef and #SumatraPDF are not really comparable, but they get most of the jobs done…

  16. Quote: "This page is outdated. #Accessibility support is not complete and therefore disabled".

    I think this is missing a sentence ending. Something like:
    * "#disabled people are shit out of luck."
    * "disabled users are excluded from the product."
    * "Disabled individuals do not have a place at our table."

    Et du coup tu génères ton aperçu en ligne de commande ?
    Tu as un lecteur pdf qui accepte l'écriture même le pdf ouvert ?
    (Je me suis aperçu il y a peu que #SumatraPDF l'acceptait).

  18. Visores #PDF. El rey de lo ligero es #SumatraPDF, 7 mb en comparación con los 500 megas que llega a ocupar no-sabemos-bien-en-que #Adobe reader. Mantiene su adorable presentación cutre aunque ya cuenta con una interfaz modernilla. Permite ver y crear anotaciones PERO NO rellenar formularios o firmar PDFs 🙁
    sumatrapdfreader.org

    Si necesito lo de los formularios o firmas, en el siguiente escalón instalo el clásico #Foxit reader. Cuidado con las guarrerías preseleccionadas al instalar.
    foxit.com/es-la/pdf-reader/

    Por cierto, no hace falta que imprimas, firmes y escanees los PDF, se puede hacer fácil, barato, rápido y ecológico con un visor que lo permita como Adobe reader o Foxit.

  19. No uses Adobe Acrobat Reader si puedes evitarlo.

    He tenido que imprimir muchas cosas últimamente y el AAR es lentísimo, cuando le doy a imprimir se bloquea y no me deja hacer nada más hasta que procesa toda la orden de impresión. Lo cual le lleva MUCHO tiempo

    ¿Cómo nos han colado toda esta basura que usamos a diario?

    Ich habe auf der Arbeit, wo ich Windows nutzen muss, Sumatra PDF.
    sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-
    Ist Open Source und portable (ohne Installation). Und recht schlank.

  21. On Windows, is one of my favourites for reading PDFs or EPUBs: Small installation, portable, data-saving, flexible, easy to use and of course Open Source.
