I use Sumatra too but only in a limited way: I view pdf that is output
from running LaTeX. The advantage is that Sumatra, unlike Adobe, does
not lock the file when it is open and checks to see if it has been
changed behind its back. This makes it much easier to develop documents
using the TeX related tools. On the other hand, Adobe offers tons of
useful, though heavy handed, capabilities that are totally missing in Sumatra. -- Jeff Barnett

yes, i think that was a problem when i used to use Adobe's viewer.



What are some of Adobe's features that are totally missing in
Sumatra ???

The docs of the latest version mention "CmdFavoriteToggle", but without
any shortcut assigned. So it should be possible to assign a custom shortcut.

I also like the smooth integration of Sumatra into working with LaTeX.
And I like the compact view of the PDF bookmarks. Nevertheless Adobe
Acrobat Reader is my default PDF viewer for other documents.

For some time I missed the feature of rotating a page in Sumatra. But
the current version now has that.

But from time to time I like to zoom to a custom area by drawing a
rectangle. This seems to be possible with Adobe, but not with Sumatra.

Then with Adobe I quite often use the button to return to the previous
view. That is quite handy when you jump to a page by a link and want to
return to the page you were before.
