IE View 1.0 b4 plugin using word documents

[MeTAlMollY]

Hello nice Total commander users,

I have two questions about the IE View 1.0 beta 4:

1. When I select a MS word document using quickview (CTRL+Q).
It correctly opens the document, but there is no menu available.

How can I get an menu like the standard menu the formatting menu etc.

2. When I open a pdf file also using quick view, it doesn't open it.
I just see an icon, do I need aditional programs?
I have also installed the IE pdf plugin. IE opens the pdf correctly?

Does anybody have any clue

Thanks alot,
Mark

1. When I select a MS word document using quickview (CTRL+Q). It correctly opens the document, but there is no menu available. How can I get an menu like the standard menu the formatting menu etc.

It's normal. It's for viewing only. To format (edit) doc, open Word.
Nevertheless I would like to have a context menu available in Quick View panel (e.g. to change mode or font with mouse).

2. When I open a pdf file also using quick view, it doesn't open it. I just see an icon, do I need aditional programs?

Yes, read PDFView plugin's readme.txt:
"To run pdfview.wlx you need to have the latest version of Ghostscript installed. To obtain Ghostscript go to http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/AFPL/index.htm"

I have also installed the IE pdf plugin.

I don't know such a plugin. Plugin for IE?

IE opens the pdf correctly?

It's a question?

Prerequirements:

• installed Acrobat Reader

In ieview.ini uncomment or set this lines:

Code: Select all

AllowActiveX=1
acrobat=.pdf;

For view flash animation you must:

• uncomment line start with qvp=
  at end of this line add .swf;

(flash.ocx must be installed; for IE6 is automaticly)

Thanks henrich.fukna,

It worked (viewing the pdf file) as you described.
It was a little dumb of me because when opening the ieview.ini file I saw the following text inside the file:

; Set to 1 to allow ActiveX controls to execute. NOTE: Viewing PDF files requires

So sorry, for quetion, but it all works now, so thanks !!
