Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

PDF manipulation apps - PDFRider and PDFrizator

Submitted by substorm on February 1, 2013 - 1:17pm

Although PDFTK Builder is not bad, its biggest problem is that it doesn't have PDF preview.

After a very long search, I was able to find the following two free applications that have PDF preview and can do basic PDF manipulation (delete, rotate, rearrange, etc):

PDFRider:
http://pdfrider.codeplex.com/

PDFrizator:
http://www.rttsoftware.com/pdfrizator.html

PDFrizator has a portable option. Not sure about PDFrider's portability but I think it should also work.

Maybe it's a good idea to add these two to the Portable Apps list as long as the authors approve.

Adobe Flash Player from Chrome

Submitted by farat_as on January 28, 2013 - 5:14pm

Hi,

I have read the topics about Adobe Flash Player Portable on this forums. From Adobe's official site we can download two different executables: Flash for IE and Flash for other browsers.

As I understand, except IE, all browsers reads the Flash Player from same directory. I mean they are using the same Flash Player. Chrome Portable comes with Flash Player. That means if Firefox Portable can read these files, Firefox will be able to use Flash Player too (as portable). But because Firefox and Chrome are portable, Firefox can not find Chrome Portable's Flash files.
