PDFFilter - Thank you! Thank you!
A thousand thank yous to Vladimir L. Olovyannikov for designing his PDFFilter [ http://www.totalcmd.net/plugring/filter.html ]. This provides not only viewing via Adobe Active-X, but also an excellent text conversion viewer using pdftotext.
This is exactly what I have been waiting for (and asked for on this forum some time ago. My wishes are answered... It really makes a difference. It's great that TC's design allows all you talented people to write such great plug-ins .
Thank you,
Derek

Thanks a lot, Derek and norfie for really kind words.
Actually, first I made the plugin to lookthrough a dozen of PDFs I had to prepare for International Meeting
Just a brief clarification: filenames in listfilter.ini are NOT casesensitive - this happened because I used TC's "Copy full file path into clipboard" feature.
As for wish requested by norfie:
I think the best way would be to put an entry into the lsplugin.ini file indicating where the config to be read from. If this entry is omitted, then the plugin will consider its' own directory as the directory with lsfilter.ini, otherwise, the directory specified within that lsplugin.ini entry will be used.
What do you think?

+Due to a huge number of requests, the feature of copying the file to be viewed
to the Temp directory (for non-English users using converters which cannot work
with folder/files containing national alphabet characters).
+Ability to use picture converters, converting file to jpeg (JPG)-experimental (many users requested that).
This is especially useful for gswin32c ver. 8.0 and higher, which supports anti-aliasing.
