Today, on any computer, there is a PDF reader which, in most cases, is Adobe Acrobat Reader. Acrobat Reader is, without a doubt, the most popular PDF Reader and perhaps also the best because it is the official program of Adobe, the same company that invented the PDF format.
The latest version of the program, Adobe Reader 11 is certainly better than previous editions but still remains full of features that many users do not use and that weigh down the program.
To optimize and make the Adobe program lighter, you can use a small and simple automatic tool that disables all accessory functions, making Acrobat Reader 10 much faster to open and load and open PDFs .
You can then download the small free PDF SpeedUp program which is also in Italian (the download can be found by scrolling down the developer page).
Without installation, PDF Speed Up can be launched immediately to see what it does if changes are made to Acrobat Reader.
In particular, the Printme and Adobe Reader icons are deleted and the integrations with Internet Explorer, the confirmation window for closing, the initial screen, the automatic update and the automatic start of plugins and advertising are deactivated.
It also clears the history of open documents and speeds up the speed of opening documents on the network.
The useless folder of the Ebooks that appears in the Documents folder is eliminated.
Almost all the options can be excluded, in case you want to keep one of the listed features.
Basically this application removes all the useless and irrelevant plugins that load with the official Adobe PDF reader.
The result, after applying all the changes, is a clear improvement in Acrobat Reader performance that opens and loads PDF documents more quickly .
PDF Speed Up works with all versions of the Adobe Reader program from version 5 to 10 and works on Windows 7, XP and Vista.
At any time you can press the Restore button to restore all the plugins and return Acrobat Reader to the default settings.
The program is very innocent and non-invasive, after trying it I can say that it does what it says, without any risk of side effects.
The only thing to note is that, when PDF Speed Up is finished, a paid program advertisement appears which can be closed by pressing the " No thanks " button.
Finally, I remember that there are many other programs to read PDF listed in the post on Best alternatives to Adobe Acrobat Reader to open pdf
