Sumatra PDF, the open-source Adobe Reader replacement, improves performance, printing

Sumatra -- the lightweight, open source alternative to Adobe Reader -- has just updated to version 1.3 and lead developer Krzysztof Kowalczyk has delivered some welcome improvements. Sumatra now uses libjpeg-turbo for faster rendering of some PDFs and its printing support has been improved. Documents can also be zoomed and rotated using your keyboard via the + and * keys, respectively.
Sumatra 1.3 also sports a handful of interface tweaks and adds support for the forward and back buttons common on more "sophisticated" mice.

Any free tool that can auto generate bookmarks based in heading fonts and size. Like Nitro PDF can.

Sumatra is not the only open-source Adobe Reader replacement.

@gimcrackgeek I don't think I stated that anywhere. If you're referring to the title, that's a common usage of 'the' -- Chevrolet, the American automobile maker -- doesn't mean they're the only one ;)

Love this app, by far the best PDF reader I have ran across that loads up in few seconds.

Fastest PDF reader I ever see. Printing is strange though.
