All Purpose File Viewer For Text and Graphic Formats [Posted on 2001-06-11]
You are in the middle of a project and can't remember whether to use graphic1 or graphic2. Memory is so valuable so you don't want to load your graphics program just to see which file has the correct image. You are installing a program but you want to read a text file without having to load Word or even notepad. You are using "Find" to look for all files named "my file" but you don't want to load a program to see which of the various "my file" 'finds' are what you need. You have a folder for graphics but they range from .gif to .jpg to whatever. How do you weed out the duplicates or ones you no longer need without loading the image? You have a graphic in PhotoFinish .pcx format but you do not have PhotoFinish or perhaps someone gave you a WordPerfect file but you don't have WordPerfect. You are following a tree view in explorer but do not want to disturb the process by loading apps to see files; in fact you do not even know and are they word processor or graphic files. You are so tight on resourses one more program will most likely result in a crash. What do you do? For everyone of these problems, I right click, choose Quick View Plus and there is the answer. Freeware graphic viewers do not have text/word processor support. You'll get so used to a right click + Quick View Plus that you will not remember how you lived without it. If you are only to get one utility, this is the one. Try the evaluation (free trial) version and see for yourself. I can't give a URL but we are talking about a program from JASC software. In fact, I should be able to give out the URL for a free trial because you'll come running back here to buy it. Why? Because buying here is [at the time of this writing] is $20 less then what JASC charges. I've used Quick View Plus for years. I find it rock solid. I cannot imagine doing any serious computing or file sorting without it.

If you want to view and/or print files this is the program to have. Im from the old school and still like a hard copy of a file before I make any changes to it. QVP6.0 has everything you could ask for in a file viewer. It will view any file on your system. Very fast and easy, and the price is very good also...

It said it would open visio documents. It did but I could not read the labels. This rendereed the product useless.

Buy this only if you really need it [Posted on 2001-08-26]
I was perfectly happy with the quick view built into Windows 98. But Windows 2000 doesn't have quick view built in, so I got this. This is expensive for something that does so little, but it does the job well. So if you are running Windows 2000 (XP?) and you miss quick view enough to pay the price, buy this; if not, don't.

Quick View Plus... [Posted on 2002-01-26]
As a JASC product, Quick View Plus is a bit disappointing. I am used to high quality products coming out of JASC, and almost always give them the highest recommendations. Although I would recommend Quick View Plus, not so much as other JASC products. Quick View Plus will open most any type of document, particularly helpful if you have to frequently change from Macs to PCs. I am a student at a University and as such sometimes use Mac files, mostly PC. Before purchasing this product, I was unable to view any files saved in Mac formats, now this is no longer the case. The files that it does view, however, range in quality from good to poor depending on the type. Poor quality, however, is still better than nothing at all. Quick View Plus is fairly customizable as to what it integrates with, and does its work when necessary without overburdening me. Another great feature is the archiving program. With Quick View Plus, you can create ZIP files for use, however I still prefer WinZip. If you are in need of a program for viewing formats not on your PC, then this is a program for you to look at. If you only occasionally need to view these kinds of files, maybe you should let the sender print you out a copy. For the price, it will all depend on how often you intend to use the program.
