either preview or skim. I hoep some of this helps.

Can someone please tell me what is the best application to use to read PDF
files on the mac? Is there some way of reading image PDF files that come
from universities on the Mac. I'm asking these questions on behalf of a
friend of mine.

I know that we can view them with the viewer, but can we navigate and edit
them? I've never tried it and would like to know how folks are doing it, or if
they are.
Thanks.

Hello all,
I'm curious about the way the iPhone5 reads pdf files. When I can't read
a pdf file on my computer or convert it to text or anything, lately, I've
tried it on my iPhone5. I got a cookbook that said:

Now, are there pdf to text converters

Hi all,
I lent my machine to a colleague who installed Adobe Reader on it. I removed
it, however Safari still thinks it's installed and consequently will not open
any PDF downloaded from the web.
Anyone have a quick-fix?

Skim is a freeware application, so you're unlikely to find it in the App Store.
Try a google search and, if you're still not successful, let me know and I'll
send you a direct link to our own archive of the application.

Hi Everyone,
I've made good progress on using VO with my Macbook Pro but I do have some
questions regarding PDF files.
Is it easier/more productive to use Preview or Acrobat with PDF files?
Any help with navigating PDF files would be helpful.
Is it possible to fill out PDF form pages
For most pdf files, preview is by far better at interacting with vo
and the pdf content than adobe's digital edditions, (though I'm
positive others have different opinions) on the other hand, as far as
I know, you can't fill out pdf files on the mac, though if the pdf
file isn't protected
