How To View Pdf Files Online

Pdf is the most common document format which is widely used nowadays. Sometimes I fall in a situation when the computer does not have any adobe acrobat or other pdf viewer installed especially at cyber cafes or at university computer lab. In such situation it's not possible to download and install the adobe reader in a very short time.

In a situation like this I depend on online pdf viewer like samurajdata.se or pdfescape. Online pdf viewers like these saves you a lot of hassle and you can view the pdf instantly. Both Samurajdata and Pdfescape differ from each other in a variety of way.

Samurajdata

Loading is quite faster
Have keyboard shortcuts to move between pages like (Alt + N) for navigating to next page, (Alt + P) for navigating to previous page

Pdfescape

Very nice user interface

Have zooming options
Allows you to print
You have the options to save the edited or non-edited pdf document
