Why Foxit?

Even though Ubuntu comes with a lot of great applications for working with PDFs, some functionality is not available in the programs installable through the standard repositories, and sometimes people just prefer something other than Evince, Kpdf, or Adobe Reader. Foxit is one of those programs.

How to Install Foxit

Paste these commands into the|terminal:

Download Foxit

wget -c http://mirrors.foxitsoftware.com/pub/foxit/reader/desktop/unix/1.x/1.0/enu/FoxitReader10_Linux_enu_i386.tar.bz2

Unzip the archive

tar -jxvf FoxitReader10_Linux_enu_i386.tar.bz2 

Move the executable to a universal location

sudo mkdir /opt/foxit
sudo mv Foxit /opt/foxit/

Make the executable universally available

sudo ln -s /opt/foxit/Foxit/FoxitReader /usr/bin/foxit

Now, the command foxit should launch the application.

Remove the original archive

After you test out that Foxit is working properly, you can remove the original .tar.gz file you downloaded with the first command

rm FoxitReader10_Linux_enu_i386.tar.bz2

Another advanced PDF application

PDFedit is also a popular advanced PDF program.
