Foxit® Announces Mobile PDF Apps for Apple® iPad®

PDF Technology Preferred by over 130 Million Users is Now Available on the iPad

FREMONT, Calif. - March 21, 2012 - Foxit® Corporation, a leading provider of solutions for reading, editing, creating, organizing, and securing PDF documents, today announced the release of the two Foxit Mobile PDF apps for Apple iPad tablets. Foxit Mobile PDF Lite provides a fast and accurate free PDF Reader with advanced display and document management capabilities for users to view PDF documents and forms. Foxit Mobile PDF Pro provides additional commenting and collaboration tools. Both Mobile PDF apps are based on Foxit Reader technology, which is the favorite desktop PDF reader of over 130 million users worldwide.

Tablets are typically not the only devices that mobile users utilize. Most mobile users still use desktop systems due their increased screen size, powerful computing resources (CPU, memory, and disk), full keyboard, and mouse. When they are on the go, they shift from desktop systems to mobile tablets. When making this transition, mobile users don’t want to change applications or use "watered down" versions of their desktop applications. They want to continue to use the same features with a common user experience making the transition seamless. Foxit's lightweight architecture and platform independent technology uniquely provide this seamless transition to mobile PDF users.
