NetBeans PDF Plugin

NetBeans IDE is the latest development of Oracle's Java IDE, featuring a powerful GUI Builder and profiler. It also provides an excellent platform to build your own RCP application on.

The PDF viewer also allows you to open PDF files from the internet, which it will cache, and store a list of your favourite PDF files for easy access.
