I currently have Acrobat Pro 11. It's very unwieldy. The first time I view a document, it's fine, but then it gets stuck. Even exiting Acrobat doesn't help. I have to exit Lyx and get back!
Is there a simpler alternative? And how to tell Lyx not to use Acrobat pro? (I have Acrobat Pro "associated" as the default pdf viewer on my Windows system; that's how I would like to continue for non-Lyx uses.)
TIA.

LyX ⇒ Newbie question: which pdf reader to use with Windows 8.1?
NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi and welcome,
SumatraPDF is very good pdf viewer. You can find out how to configure LyX to use Sumatra at their wiki page.
