Browse your documents' content quickly

xplorer² has a quick preview panel that regognises most popular text, graphics, media (audio/video) and document formats (office and PDF). The previewer has a draft mode (tab) that is especially quick extracting text content, and a normal mode that can activate in-place document servers like Microsoft Word using ActiveX technology.

In most cases the draft mode is all you'll need, avoiding the overheads associated with ActiveX.

xplorer² can collaborate with all your text filters meant for windows indexing service, extracting text from proprietary formats like PDFs, DOCs etc. Such filters also enable accurate text searching within files.
 

You can browse your folders in all usual view modes, including thumbnails and arranged in groups. In detailed view mode you have a large number of available columns that help you get a better view of your content. xplorer² integrates both shell column handlers available in windows explorer (e.g. file comments) plus it offers many useful columns of its own e.g. for file checksums. You can arrange files using more than one column at a time (multi-way sort), which is a must for large file collections. Whatever you see in xplorer² can be extracted as text for printing or other book-keeping and report generation.
