Foxit’s pre-ticked boxes and hard sell
There was a time when Foxit was seen as the best alternative to Adobe’s bloated PDF reader. Now, it’s pulling more stunts than Evel Knievel (not the most topical reference, I grant you).
The fun and games start on the download), where you have to choose between PDF Editor 12, PDF Editor Pro 12, PDF Editor Pro + 12, PDF Editor (two versions) or PDF Reader (two versions again). I closed my eyes, pointed randomly at the screen and went for PDF Reader without add-ons, described as a “free download”.
