Adobe Reader

[goldfish77]

Hi,
Can anyone suggest a suitable adobe reader version for the asus 553s pc, 64 bit.
I used to have version 9 on my old pc 32 bit and that was great. I could have the {save as} pdf option. I find some only have the Save only option to text etc.
As i work a lot with pdf's i would like one with the save as pdf option.

many thanks

The latest version DC will do it but its not very user friendly - see below

Save a PDF
Use this method to save PDFs, including PDF Portfolios, and PDFs in which you have added comments, form field entries, and digital signatures.
Note:
Saving a digitally signed PDF invalidates the signature.
Do one of the following:

To save changes to the current file, choose File > Save.

To save a copy of a PDF, choose File > Save As.

In Acrobat Reader DC, choose File > Save As or File > Save As Other > Text.

To save a copy of a PDF Portfolio, choose File >Save As Other > PDF Portfolio.

If you are viewing a PDF in a web browser, the Acrobat File menu is not available. Use the Save A Copy button in the Acrobat toolbar to save the PDF.

Why use Adobe Reader at all? It frequently features in articles listing the software that should never be on anyone's PCs! (It's horrid, slow, bloated and vulnerable to security threats).

The most popular alternative is Foxit:

which is, indeed, about a zillion times better than Adobe Reader but my own favourite is Sumatra PDF:
