Reviews of pdf reader:
Missing 1. Document loading progress bar 2. Text Tool 3. Draw Tool The above are in epub.js
All good but one. Need to add the feature of showing "Recently Opened PDFs", so we could easily reopen them. It's a standard feature in all doc apps. It ought to be already available without us asking for it.
I get really annoyed by the touch UI layout of chrome pdf viewer. Found this best extension that is updated regularly which doesn't occupy more vertical screen space.
