Well you can use Foxit reader for this simple use. If you want more advanced fuctions either get Foxit Reader Pro or Adobe Acrobat pro.

Hi,
kindly guide further how to obtain this PRO version of FOXIT

Assuming that you aren't asking how to download ahem version of the software, you might want to try out Googling, "Foxit Pro", and clicking the first result.

:rofl::rofl:
And if you are using Foxit reader then click on top right hand side corner on the ads. It will direct you to the site where you can buy.
