TextMaker Viewer

TextMaker Viewer is a software which enables you to view content found in the most popular word processing formats, including DOC, PDF, RTF, TXT and HTML.

During the installation process, you can make file associations and enable to integrate the tool in the "Open with" option (in the context menu).

The interface of the program is simplistic and easy to work with. You can open files by using either the file browser or the "drag and drop" method.

You can open documents in multiple windows, check out file properties, export a document as a PDF file and send it via email.

But you can also use a search and replace function, go to a particular page or bookmark, as well as switch from standard to outline or continuous mode.

You can zoom in and out, use a magnifying glass, as well as turn on an horizontal ruler and switch to full screen mode.

In the "Options" menu you can configure the viewing mode (e.g. enable table and frame guidelines, overflow mark, show paragraph breaks and tabs) and the interface appearance (e.g. dialog style and language, smooth edges of screen fonts).

TextMaker Viewer runs on a low amount of system resources and didn't freeze, crash or pop up errors during our tests. However, there is no help file available.

TextMaker Viewer doesn't really offer anything groundbreaking, but it doesn't consume too much CPU and has a very good response time. We suggest you give it a shot to see if it matches your preferences.
