Last edited 2 Oct 2011. Tried: Adobe Reader, Foxit Reader, PDF-XChange Viewer, SumatraPDF Portable. As mentioned in my previous post , I discovered some problems with Foxit Reader and PDF-XChange Viewer. More precisely, Foxit Reader had been criticized heavily because it forces installation of a browser toolbar . However, this was changed in the latest version. On the other hand, the rendering in PDF-XChange is not as good as I previously thought. In summary, you can look at the table below.

Feel free to share this post if you find it helpful. The main reason I use codec pack is to play rmvb files and I despised installation of a separate RealPlayer. K-Lite Mega Codec Pack was once my favourite codec pack. However, since I switched from Windows Vista 32-bit to Windows 7 64-bit, K-Lite does not work well anymore. I am using Windows 7 Codecs from Shark007 now ( Vista alternative ). It does not associate to any specific player, and thus allowing Windows Media Player to play rmvb files smoothly. (Remember to run Windows 7 Codecs as administrator, and select "windows filetype associations" to associate video files with Windows Media Player.) ...
