Even in the new version (Adobe Reader X)? What do you mean by bookmarks? If you mean what I think you mean, it works for me in the newest version.

0 Klenje Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Another vote for PDF XChange Viewer. They've got a 64 bit version too :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/980316-best-free-pdf-reader-with-bookmarks-support/#findComment-593768604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 FiB3R Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Adobe Reader X Using around 5.5MB of ram (Win7 x64) for a image heavy, 180 page document. http://hotfile.com/dl/70593434/46d19c0/jftut1.3.8.pdf.html Bookmarks working just fine, as I'm sure they have in all previous version of Adobe/Acrobat Reader. Really don't understand what people have still got against Adobe Reader. To me, using anything else is like using Open Office for MS Office documents, (but even more silly, as Adobe Reader is free) it works fine for the most part, but it's just not the same, and you will find things that don't display exactly as intended. Pro tip: To view PDF?s optimally on your system, set the zoom level of the document to 100% then tell Adobe Reader to match your screens DPI...

0 +Xinok Subscriber² Posted March 8, 2011 Subscriber² Share Posted March 8, 2011 I promise you that Adobe Reader is using more than 5.5MB of RAM. "Private Working Set" is not an accurate way to measure the RAM usage of a program. I think the best way is to compare the available RAM while the program is running and after closing the program. Adobe Reader running: Adobe Reader closed: That's a difference of ~160MB. As to why the System Cache dropped so much, that's because I was running Adobe Reader sandboxed. After closing the program, the sandboxed files were deleted.

0 FiB3R Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 For some reason it's now showing 25MB no matter how many times I open/close it. Doing the test you suggested, Xinok, it's using between 30MB and 70MB for the document I linked. If I go nuts scrolling back and forth through the entire document, it hits around 150MB. When opening just the application by it self, it uses 15MB Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/980316-best-free-pdf-reader-with-bookmarks-support/#findComment-593770072 Share on other sites More sharing options...
