New versions of foxit have 2 toolbar modes, Classic and Ribbon. Ribbon it the one this training will be based on, however if you have an older version, [almost] everything referenced is still under the same menu, it might just look different. If you want to change to ribbon mode (which I find tons easier to use, see this video).

The commonly used menu items are:

Home (or on classic mode, this will contain items mixed with File and Edit)
- OCR (for scanned documents, text is recognized so it can be edited)
- Rotate Pages
- Select Text (so you can highlight, copy, paste, etc.)
- Hand Tool (required to be selected to fill in fillable forms)
- Highlight
- Typewriter (allows you to type in text, this is under Comment in Classic mode)
- Edit Text (allows you to edit text)
- Edit Object (edits anything in the document)

Convert (classic mode, this is under File, export to)
- Allows you to convert PDFs to images and MS office files (the MS Office Conversion isn’t always accurate)

Organize
- Contains the tools to rearrange documents
- Flatten Document (This removes all interactive features of a PDF, such as fillable fields and makes the document more compatible.)

Comment
- Typewriter, again
- Create Custom Signature Stamp (Create, to the right of Stamp) – Note: Don’t confuse this with a digital signature, they’re different.
- Drawing Tools (useful for Whiting Out)
