Even when it may have a somewhat unpleasant aesthetic, it is fast and very light. This marvel is an essential part of the Freeware / OpenSource suite of applications that I always install and use on my PC.
Do yourself a favor, forget about other programs like Adobe Reader, etc.
I used adobe reader, Foxit reader
but for me Sumatra PDF is the quickest software (hopefully I found it)
Good for looking at a PDF quickly, but anything more and SumatraPDF just lacks very basic features, like filling forms.
Honestly, this just makes it useless for real use, because it would mean keeping two different pdf readers installed just in case you encounter forms.

Very fast PDF reader. I can open several documents with it at the same time.
The most lightweight pdf and DjVu reader, must-have for anyone wanted a simple app to read some pdf and DjVu files.
Lightweight. Really lightweight. If it was any more lightweight, it would actually make your PC faster!
I love Sumatra not only cause it is a very lightweight app for reading PDFs, especially compared to Adobe's one that it replaced a handful of years ago, but also because it can open so many different formats, including CBx, EPUB and MOBI files.
It does feel a bit outdated and simplistic, but considering how LIGHTWEIGHT it is, I am shocked how great it feels!
PS: It is great as a viewer, not an editor. So use it as a viewer and have something else to edit your PDF.
