In my newsfeeds i found this nice article on Webupd8 about MuPDF and how to install it. You can install MuPDF by adding the Guilhem Lettron PPA for MuPDF to your sources.


MuPDF is a lightweight PDF and XPS viewer MuPDF is also small, fast, and yet complete. It supports PDF 1.7 with transparency, encryption, hyperlinks, annotations, searching and more. It also reads OpenXPS documents. Read more about MuPDF.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mupdf
