“Foxit Reader, yea. Better performance with most PDFs and better security.

Open Office, nay. Performance is a joke.”

Yeah, thta’s my take on them as well. Like Foxit, but Open Office is kinda clunky.

There are ways to speed up Open Office. My way is to not use it, but Koffice in KDE.

While I have been trying to bring myself to use Open Office, I find it not only "clunky", but also really horrid at formatting text.. some fonts won't display as themselves in Open Office... I have yet to find a fix for this. Just about a deal-breaker.
