Become a MacRumors Supporter for $50/year with no ads, ability to filter front page stories, and private forums.
As has been mentioned - Preview app - I use it all the time for screenshots, cropping etc. No problems.
But; Preview will not open very large PDFs that I have. I have to resort to using Acrobat Reader which opens them instantly.
