Classic PDF Reader

Classic PDF Reader is a lightweight and intuitive software utility that aims to help you work with your Portable Document Format files more easily, offering you the possibility of opening multiple files simultaneously, unlike the viewer that is built-in to the latest Windows editions.

Straightforward and unpretentious GUI

Appearance-wise, the tool stays true to its name, as it features a very tame and slightly old-looking user interface, its menus, and ribbon functions being reminiscent of Windows XP.
The main window of Classic PDF Reader allows you to open your file, launching different instances for each document; the ribbon buttons enable you to access its main functions with a single click.

View PDF files, copy their contents or export them to images

With the help of this application, you can open any Portable Document Format file you want, even having the option of setting Classic PDF Reader as your default viewer, so you can just double-click the items to open them.
The ribbon buttons allow you to save your file to multiple different formats (TXT or picture: JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP, EPS, EMF, TIF). Alternately, you can copy the contents of the document to the clipboard, either as text or as an image. While it does not let you select the targeted section, as it will copy it entirely, a ‘Cut’ instrument enables you to crop the precise area that you need.
Other functions provide you with the ability to adjust the display of your PDF on the screen, to make it easier to read (‘Actual Size’, ‘Fit Page’, ‘Fit Width’) . You can zoom in and out, rotate the page clockwise or counterclockwise, as well as move backward and forward between pages.

An approachable PDF viewer

In short, Classic PDF Reader is simple and practical program that can satisfy most common PDF handling needs. It relies on a tried and true interface, offering a set of easily accessible functions to help you work more freely with your documents.
