    Hi, Everyone,
    How's it going? I have been using a trial version of Adobe Acrobat for a while now, but it's just too slow and I do not want to pay a lot of money just to view PDF files (I do not create any, I just view them). I have heard that there are open source alternatives to PDF-viewing, so if I can get one or a few recommendations, I would really appreciate it.

    I am a Windows XP, Service Pack 2, user.
    Thank you in advance!

    Well, acrobat reader is freeware, so uhm....you shouldn't have to pay for it.

    However, there is a better solution, but it's not open source...it is, however, free.
