I use PDFgear, seems a handy little program for viewing/searching through PDFs. I found Adobe Reader started becoming too bulky, with updates. Then AI decided to be put in the reader itself I know you can turn it off in settings but that was enough for me to uninstall with Revo and install PDFgear.

Don't forget, we talking editors, not viewers 🤓 even if free PDF viewers is good to know and i LOVE everything that is cross platform, as then you don't have to get use to three different ones just because you have one Win-computer, one Mac-computer and one Linux-computer
