[download] Foxit Reader for Linux/Ubuntu

July 28, 2009

Foxit Reader
Some time ago, I noticed Foxit Reader was also available for Linux, but… since they don’t offer a .deb, I decided to make my own, and also made a portable version (in RUNZ format).

Downsides:
-Closed source
-The license seems a bit restrictive
-little ads on the interface (see image above)
-Slower than the default Ubuntu viewer (evince)

Pros:
-Nothing special I could find, but it is always good to have more software available for Linux

Download links:

Download Portable Foxit Reader for Linux/Ubuntu
Download .deb file of Foxit Reader for Ubuntu

By the way, this is already in the Super OS repository, the package name is “foxit-reader” (no quotes)
