A free PDF reader that's impressively quick
Sumatra PDF is a basic PDF viewer that aims to make viewing PDFs as quick and light as possible.
In the world of PDF tools online, applications to view and edit can get bloated quickly. The more features you add, the slower the programs become a problem that blights lots of otherwise excellent applications.
Sumatra PDF aims to overcome this by cutting out almost all of the features that weight other PDF editors and viewers down. Of course, to be so streamlined it has few configuration options and won't let you edit or create documents, but if you only want to view the occasional PDF, if will do the job really well.
Great language options and good zoom and search functions are two extra features that add to Sumatra PDF's good points. It opens large files quickly and efficiently, and has a series of hotkey commands that make working with PDFs even easier. Help is online only, but Sumatra PDF is such a simple program that we doubt you'll have any problems.
Sumatra PDF - very quick, but extremely basic.

User reviews about Sumatra PDF

Very good. It reads besides pdf, epub, mobi, cbr, cbz, and others. On the negative side, you can't cop stuff from it.

I have tried several non-Adobe PDF readers, this is my favorite. This is a piece of work the author should be proud of, functional, usable, minimal bloat. More

Fabulous PDF reader. I have been using it for many years. Never had a problem with it. It does exactly what it is designed to do, and it does it very well.
To convert Word docs to PDF I use Software995. That combination, plus the online PDFescape, takes care of all my needs.
I would be happy to donate some money for this app if I knew how. More

Simple and clear. Best read, comfortable for eyes and mind!

Incredibly faster than any pdf reader, but it is just a reader so you can't edit them. Perfect when you have very big file to load. I use it for pdf that have more than 100 pages. More
