PDF is a widely used format, often employed to distribute eBooks, manuals, and miscellaneous documents. There is a large choice of readers that can be used with PDF files, but they're often heavyweight, slow, or do not properly work. PDFlite is a program based on SumatraPDF that can read and convert PDF files. Its key features are that it's free, opensource, lightweight, and fast. On a low-end computer, PDF files only take a few milliseconds to open and doesn't need much of your RAM. There are multiple options allowing you zoom in and out, or make the PDF fit the width of the window. If you are reading a large document, you'll probably like the "Go To" feature that allows you to directly jump to the first or last page, or to the page which number you type in the box. As there are about 40 supported languages, yours is probably available. If you're looking for a specific word or sentence, you can use the search function that will show you the page containing what you looked for. Instead of the traditional PDF readers, the search feature is very fast.
Bottom-line: PDFlite will probably satisfy you if you're looking for a fast and easy-to-use solution.
