Foxit

Warning: this program is not known to work on some versions (works fine for me on 32- and 64-bit 10.04

How to Install Foxit

Paste these commands into the terminal:

Download Foxit

Find the latest at http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/desklinux/download.html

wget -c http://mirrors.foxitsoftware.com/pub/foxit/reader/desktop/linux/1.x/1.1/enu/FoxitReader_1.1.0_i386.deb

Install the .deb

sudo dpkg -i FoxitReader_1.1.0_i386.deb

(or whatever version you've just downloaded)

If you've got a 64-bit machine, you'll need to:

sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture FoxitReader_1.1.0_i386.deb

n.b. -- this works fine for me, though I have installed a few 32 bit libraries.

Remove the original archive

After you test out that Foxit is working properly, you can remove the original .deb file you downloaded with the first command

rm FoxitReader_1.1.0_i386.deb

It should perhaps be noted that the 1.1 version of FoxitReader, which is the one for which 32-bit binaries are available (June 2011), does not have the annotation features of the current Windows version which is version 5.0. You are limited to viewing the pdf, copying text and making an image of the pdf which you can do with other native Linux pdf readers.
