SDK Now Allows Developers Integration of Fast File Previewing Application for Many File Types,Document Management and Other Applications

Software developers can now integrate GetData’s flexible file previewing tool “Explorer View” to increase visual functionality in their own software applications. GetData Software today released an SDK (Software Developers Kit) - the Explorer View File Viewer SDK (EVSDK), which enables application developers to easily insert file viewing technology into their own applications. EVSDK can be integrated using either Dynamic link library (DLL) or ActiveX (OCX). “GetData’s Explorer View preview technology provides one-click secure viewing, copying, printing, searching, playing, rewind, looping, zooming or rotating of files in any application. All major file types are supported, including Microsoft Office, Adobe, AutoCAD, email, video and graphics files” Graham Henley, GetData’s International Marketing Director, said today. GetData, a world leader in data recovery from PC environments, uses the previewing technology in their data recovery products including Recover My Files. “For more advanced users the EVSDK provides HEX, Binary, Text and Unicode access to raw file data and the EVSDK supports single byte, double byte and Unicode characters for world wide language support,” Mr. Henley added. He said EVSDK gives software developers the simple and cost effective opportunity to increase visual appeal and work flow productivity in their programs. “And it satisfies the demand of a modern computer user for visually driven computer interaction, particularly in large organisations where staff deal with hundreds of different file types in enterprise environments,” Mr. Henley added. He explained GetData’s Explorer View does not rely on file extensions to identify a file type, but interrogates file structure. It is a secure way to identify and view files as it does not execute files, scripts or macros in the viewing process (the default preview for non recognized file types is HEX). Existing deployment examples also include GetData’s own “Explorer View for Windows

Explorer” and “Explorer View for Microsoft Outlook” which bring instant file and email attachment viewing to those popular Microsoft programs (visit www.explorerview.com to download this software).
