minus-squaremrgoosmoos@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·21 天前I use Firefox as a PDF reader at work. it’s better than Adobe Reader or Chrome, and it’s good enough, so I haven’t bothered finding something else. I deal with secure information sometimes, in PDF form. I haven’t even considered that this information might not remain local.
