4.5 (108 votes)

BETA (September 9, 2012)

Windows (All) / Open Source / 6,503 downloads

Sumatra PDF is a slim, free, open-source PDF reader for Windows. Portable out of the box. Sumatra has a minimalistic design. Simplicity has a higher priority than a lot of features. It's small and starts up very fast. It's designed for portable use: only one file so you can run it from external USB drive. Doesn't write to registry.

1) the links on this page do not take one to the optimised builds
2) The optimised builds do not seem to have been updated in a while.
3) They are pointless as the original is perfect.

IMHO _THE BEST_ PDF reader, lean, mean and just does the job it is designed to. This is good software.
