eWeek's view on Adobe Reader clones......
![]()
So, recently, a nice chap over at eWeek called Larry Seltzer published a comparison between Adobe Reader 9 and some PDF viewer alternatives.

This came as a plesant surprise since it comes after he had previously suggested that companies should consider removing Adobe Reader due to the recent security vulnerabilities.
“After testing was completed, I'm not so anxious to dump Adobe, as all of the programs tested provided reason for concern. Perhaps responsibly managing the vulnerabilities in Adobe products is the best solution.”
In the article, Larry Seltzer could have expanded the range and type of PDF documents he used, and doesn’t discuss printing results much, if at all, but I still congratulate him for keeping an open mind.
