Enable preview in file exchange

3 Years ago

Page: 1


 
I'd like to make a suggestion for improvement of file exchange. It is possible for PTO Today to purchase technology that will render a preview of many popular file types into HTML for preview. This will allow a person to see if they would like to download the file. With the growth in the number of files, this may be more important than it once used to be.

Thanks pzettler - great suggestion!

It's something we looked at when we first launched the File Exchange. We couldn't find anything that could read different file formats (.doc, .pdf, etc) and display a preview. It's worth looking at again though as there might be something new out now. Thanks!
