I’m trying to open two PDF files simultaneously, in order to compare their contents, one on the right (Win→) and another on the left (Win←) side of my screen.
Unfortunately I’m trying without success. I already tried to open another Foxit reader, using “open as”, but nothing worked.
May I have to install Adobe and Foxit to do that?
Answer
There’s an option in Foxit Reader’s settings that allows multiple instances of the program to be opened.
Go to Tools->Preferences->Documents->Allow Multiple Instances
However in Foxit Reader version 7.2.2: go to Edit->Preferences->Documents->Allow Multiple Instances.
This will open single file in multiple windows not in multiple tabs. Then arrange windows vertically or horizontally to view two files simultaneously.
However, I have not found the split window command like Adobe Reader in Foxit.
