Objet : Re: [Full-disclosure] PDF's unsafe?

I'm a win32 guy, so I've been using Foxit Reader
<http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php>.  Its free, 4.5mb
total, and is a stand-alone applications that doesn't require an
install.

I keep it on my thumb drive with my other utils.  I've been using it
for a couple of months now with no issues reading or printing PDF's.

I dont use the official Adobe reader any more for his reason and more.
What do you use?

Are there good, secure/safe viewers available for Windows? Linux?

On Linux. I've used xpdf and gpdf. Neither was perfect but they tended
to get the job done. For example, I recently made a .PS with AbiWord
on Linux and then used ps2pdf to make it into a PDF. gpdf opens it but
it's blank. Probably a fonts or CUPS issue.

Adobe's viewer is pretty darn reliable.
