In Windows 8 Microsoft provides its own Metro-style application called Windows Reader for viewing Adobe's popular document format. Windows Reader presents a very simple full-screen experience, like other Metro-styled apps. However, if you need more functionalities or need to collaboratively work with other native applications on the same desktop, you would definitely need a native PDF reader.
PDF Viewer for Windows 8 is such a reader that offers decent capabilities and performance as well as versatile functionalities as a native application and is extremely useful for those that typically stick to the Windows 8 desktop experience.
Major Features:
View and Print PDF
Open, view, read, and print Adobe PDF files of all versions.
View Modes
Sport three reading modes, Fit Page, Center Page, and Continuous.
Navigation
In Continuous view, you can swipe left and right, use the left and right arrow keys, or click the pop-up, browser-like navigational controls that appear to move through the document. But in Center Page and Fit Page view, viewer behaves like a traditional document-based, traditional Windows application and utilizes vertical navigation instead. In this mode, you can move through the document by pressing PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN key, or by utilizing the scroll bars that appear on the right side of the application.

Zooming works as it does elsewhere: with Delete (zoom out) and Insert (zoom in) keyboard shortcuts.

You can optionally rotate the current document clockwise or anticlockwise.
