Mupdf is the lightest pdf reader in the market. It takes about less than half a second to open a pdf and gives a paper like the view of pdf on the computer/laptop screen. Following are the best features of MuPDF: 1.) It makes your pdf very presentable to read it has very fewer borders and it gives a paper view on the screen. 2.) It has a bunch of hotkeys for scrolling making bookmarks etc. For example, L and R keys on your keyboard are used to rotate the PDF clockwise and anticlockwise. 3.) You can also use the option greyscale available to make your pdf from color to black/white so that it is easy to read at night. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about MuPDF? The only downside of the Mupdf is that it does not allows you to highlight the text which is an integral part of reading pdf files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering MuPDF: I would say, everyone should try mupdf once for reading pdf and switching over mupdf for pdf,XPS and ebook reading and viewing as it is very operational and application is very eas to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is MuPDF solving and how is that benefiting you? It has helped us in opening pdf's very fast as compared to windows pdf readers which would take up to 5 -10 seconds in opening the same. So for computers/laptops with less ram it is the best tool in the market for reading pdf. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
