On Windows I've yet to see any PDF viewer that's faster or better than Sumatra. All the in-browser ones are a bit slow and lacking in features.



Too bad the font rendering quality is a little subpar compard to the other pdf viewers.

Yellow is not an issue: https://code.google.com/p/sumatrapdf/wiki/CommandLineArgumen...


But it's so ... yellow.


I was kidding, jeez. I'm a big fan of SumatraPDF and use it everywhere I can.

However I have actually heard people complain about its yellowness when started without a document. I don't care Sumatra, keep it yellow.


Seriously though, why all the yellow?


I've been using Sumatra for a long time, but it's been supplanted by Firefox in most cases recently. Sumatra is great and lightweight though, and it uses a robust and open source rendering and parsing engine.


I'm quite fond of muPDF, although it definitely leans towards the minimalist.


Try PDF-XChange Viewer.


"Shug" I use Okular everywhere.
