How to Install Foxit PDF Reader on Ubuntu or Any Linux Distro

Foxit PDF Reader is a free (as in free beer) and fast PDF reader for Linux, macOS and Windows. Linux and macOS support was added in September 15, 2015.

Foxit Reader Linux edition features include:

• Fast and lightweight
• Tabbed view for multiple PDF documents
• It allows you to protect your PDF files with password.
• Zoom in or out
• page rotation
• text search
• Use text markup tools, typewriter tool or sticky notes to annotate your PDF file.
• Print PDF documents

Install Foxit PDF Reader on Ubuntu, Linux Mint or Any Linux Distro

Go to Foxit Reader download page, choose 64 bits or 32 bits according to your OS architecture. You can also use the wget utility to download it in terminal.

Once downloaded, open up a terminal window ( CTRL+ALT+T ) and navigate to the download destination folder. For example, if the file is downloaded to the Downloads directory under your home directory, then run

Then execute the following command to extract the tar.gz archive.

A .run file will be created. Make sure you grant execute permission by running the below command.

To install it in system-wide mode, execute the .run file with root privileges.

Then follow the installation wizard. I recommend installing it under /opt/ directory as shown in the screenshot below.

Once installed, you can start it from Unity Dash or your application menu.

The user interface is well designed. I particularly like the tabbed view for multiple PDF documents and the ability to annotate and highlight which is something that Evince, the default PDF viewer in Ubuntu, doesn’t offer. Although you can’t create PDF files as you can do with the Windows edition, Foxit Reader is probably the best PDF reader for Linux.

Just what i needed. Thanks.

Hi, There. As newbie with Ubuntu, I have install Ubuntu 16.10, and I want to install foxit reader. Once I try to install with step that appear on foxit download page, why the installation directory on /home/username/opt not in root/opt folder?

is it possible to install in that folder? because its annoying me to have two opt folder. Thanks you

Hi Markerov. I recommend installing it to /opt/ directory to keep the file system organized. You can see from the tutorial screenshot that I specify /opt/foxitsoftware/fixitreader as the installation directory. You can delete /home/username/opt/ and start the Foxit installation over again.

The /opt/ directory is typically for installing non-free proprietary software that aren’t packaged as deb.

very helpfull, thx a lot

You are installing version 2.1, as shown in your screenshot, NOT version 8! Is there no version past 2.x for linux? Why does Windows have version 9 already… 🙁

I am running MS Windows version 8 on GNU/Linux by way of WINE. Perhaps one may do the same with version 9. Runs quite well …

Because Windows needs more work done on software that runs on it, especially as new versions get released from XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, and whatever is next.

Sorry, its cr*p. Interface is broken in Linux.

Great tutorial. Worked like a charm. Thanks a lot

Why does it look like a DOS program from the early-eighties?

Probably it’s because of the use of monospace font in the user interface. This only happens in recent versions.

It’s a crude version of the Windows version which I used to run under Wine in Mint 17. Since upgrading I can’t get that to work. Generally Okular is great but foxit allows signing of documents so I have it for that and it works. But an updated version would be good.

In Manjaro / Arch, type “trizen -S FoxitReader”

I installed it in Ubuntu Studio 20.04. It is working perfectly. Thanks for this tutorial on how to install Foxit reader

Great for editing PDFs (intuitive interface, many features, comments appear as they should, easy to adjust comment size, etc.), good for reading (it keeps text position across pages, has a “back”, great for within-PDF links); but it is lacks the automatic file watch (relead when the PDF changes), which is superuseful when working with e.g. LaTeX.

Unfortunately, the Linux version has severe problems. I installed in on Ubuntu 20.04, and
– It opens a new copy every time I open a new file (with non indifferent loading time)
– When I close a window, it often leaves a ghost process in the background, which hogs memory until the system dies (this problema has been around for a while, see https://forums.foxitsoftware.com/forum/portable-document-format-pdf-tools/foxit-reader/174029-foxitreader-for-linux-remains-as-ghost-process )
– It often freezes, the window cannot be closed.
I had to uninstall it. I will try running the Windows version (which is better) under WINE.

The freezing happens because updating hangs – disable auto-updating under preferences. The other problem is that the file history does not remember the absolute path, so it does not work from another directory. I solved that with a script, call it ‘/usr/local/bin/foxitreader’ (below). It will work on multiple file names, even with spaces. Connecting to a running instance is still a mystery.

#!/bin/bash
DEBUGFILE=/dev/null
FOXIT_ROOT=/opt/foxitsoftware/foxitreader
CWD=$(pwd)
S1=”
S2=”[email protected]”
if [ “$S1” != “$S2” ]; then
FILELIST=(“[email protected]”)
declare -i f=0
for i in “$”; do
case “$i” in
/*)
continue
;;
*)
FILELIST[f]=”$CWD/$i”
;;
esac
f=f+1
done
$FOXIT_ROOT/FoxitReader “$” 2> $DEBUGFILE &
else
$FOXIT_ROOT/FoxitReader 2> $DEBUGFILE &
fi

Since upgrading to Linux mint 20 Foxit Reader is preventing restart or shutdown due to running processes in background.

For solving the hanging on exit, see my answer on the Unix and Linux Stack Exchange site which I wrote specifically for Foxit Reader:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/631544/how-do-i-automatically-close-the-process-left-behind-by-a-misbehaving-applicatio

Tried it on raspberry pi 32 bit version. Error after: sudo ./FoxitReader*.run
