Foxit Reader Overview

Welcome to Foxit Reader-- the right choice to view and print PDF documents!

Foxit offers two packages of Foxit Reader (EXE and MSI). Foxit Reader (EXE) is a free PDF document viewer and creator. Foxit Reader (MSI) is developed on the basis of Foxit Reader (EXE), but it extends the usability and performance. Foxit Reader (MSI) provides advanced tools equipped with proactive security features, and is fully featured with solutions such as RMS Protection, GPO Control, XML Control, and other PDF viewing needs of enterprises and governments. This User Manual explains more in depth on the capabilities and functions of Foxit Reader, but for more information on the deployment of Foxit Reader (MSI), please refer to the attached "Foxit Reader Deployment and Configuration".

Foxit Reader (EXE) is a free PDF document viewer and printer. It launches quickly and is easy to install. Just unzip the downloaded zip file, run "Foxit Reader Setup" and then follow the installation guides to complete installation.

In addition to the basic PDF viewing functions, Foxit Reader also includes various advanced features, such as adding annotations, saving a PDF document as a text file, copying text from the text viewer, and digital signature validation.

Foxit Reader Add-ons

Foxit Reader provides separate add-ons for you to download on demand. These critical and advanced add-ons can be updated by the Update Manager, or they can also be downloaded from our website ().

Critical Add-ons

Critical add-ons are essential components for proper display and execution of our software. For example, if you open a PDF document containing Chinese characters, Foxit Reader will ask if you want to download the Eastern Asian Language Support. If you choose Cancel, you will be able to read the file, but some characters will not be displayed correctly.
