External Viewers

Menu option: Options > Preferences > External viewers

Use the External Viewers dialog box to tell dtSearch how you want your documents to be displayed.  The default is to display documents using the built-in dtSearch viewers.   To specify a different viewing method, click New... in the dialog box and enter a name for the application or document type, then enter one or more filename filters identifying the documents, and click on one of the three viewing options:

1.   Display file in dtSearch with hits highlighted.

2.   Display file in dtSearch without hits highlighted.   dtSearch will display the file using Internet Explorer or an Internet Explorer plug-in.  

3.   Launch in the application associated with the file.
