A program for reading, editing, and printing PDFs on your Mac.

  DOWNLOAD Free

Foxit Reader is a Mac program that enables you to read, annotate, and print PDF documents with ease.

The application comes as an alternative to using Preview, a Mac default utility, to open, edit, and print PDFs on your computer.

Its interface is intuitive, with a main toolbar on the upper-side of the screen that gives you access to all of the built-in editing options. You don't need much computer experience in order to configure the output settings and get the quality output files you require.

You can use this app to add bookmarks to your PDF files, attach images to the imported documents, add comments, and so much more. Once you finish editing the loaded file, you can save it or print it directly from the app's interface.

The utility also comes with an integrated search tool for immediately finding words or phrases within the imported documents.

Unfortunately, unlike the Windows version of this program, the Mac application brings a limited amount of useful features. For instance, you cannot use this utility to create PDF documents from scratch or convert them to other formats.

However, Foxit Reader is a program that comes without a price and might prove to be of good use when editing PDFs. So, it's up to you to decide if it's worth installing this free application on your Mac or not.
