by Brad Linder Nov 24th 2008

Adobe has offered this feature for ages, but again, it often takes forever to load. To be honest, the Foxit plugin isn't exactly a speed demon.

Here are a few other new features:
- Thumbnail previews of each page
- Attachment panel shows list of files attached to a PDF and allows you to open, delete, or perform other actions on them

- You can transfer your preference settings by copying an INI file
- New Foxit OnDemand Content Management add-on allows users to share and collaborate on documents online
