Chapter 3 – Read
After getting acquainted with the workspace and the basic tools, you can start the
journey of PDF reading. You can open a PDF, reach a specific page easily, adjust the
view of a document, read pure texts by the text viewer tool, view documents while
listening to them, and more. Foxit PDF Editor also allows you to view PDF portfolios,
compare PDFs, work on 3D content in PDFs, and more.
Open PDFs
Open PDFs in Foxit PDF Editor
You can open PDFs within Foxit PDF Editor in many different ways. The easiest method
is to drag and drop a PDF file into the Foxit PDF Editor window. You can also use Foxit
PDF Editor’s Open command to open a recent document, local document, or PDFs in
ECM systems (including eDOCS DM, SharePoint, Documentum, ndOffice, iManage
Work, Enterprise Connect, Worldox, ShareFile, Epona DMSforLegal, and Alfresco) and
cloud services (including OneDrive for Personal or Business, Google Drive, Dropbox,
Box, and Egnyte).
To open PDFs with the Open command, do one of the following:
Click the Open button on the Quick Access toolbar. In the Open dialog box,
select the file name, and click Open. PDF documents are usually identified with
a .pdf extension.
(Optional) You are also allowed to preview non-PDF files on the above-mentioned
cloud services in Foxit PDF Editor. The non-PDF files will be converted to PDF
temporarily when you try to open them.
Click File > Open. To open a recent document or a document stored in the local
drive, click Recent Documents/Computer. To open PDFs in ECM systems and
cloud services like SharePoint, OpenText, ndOffice, iManage Work, Egnyte,
OneDrive for Personal or Business, Google Drive, Dropbox, or Box (See also the
ECM Integration in the Share PDFs chapter), please select Add a place, sign in to
your account, and then you can open your PDF file. The connected Cloud account
will be listed in the Open history and the PDF file will be in the Recent Documents
list, which will help you open files quickly in the future. To remove an account, just
click the Delete icon that appears when you place your cursor over the
account name.
