Manage, Preview and Retrieve Files - Instantly

DotRational has released DotRational Indexer v. 2, a powerful Windows file-indexing application that saves time when retrieving Word documents, music, images, video, Flash, PDF, and RTF files. Unlike resource-intensive programs that automatically index every file on your computer, including thousands of files that you don't care about, Indexer gives you complete control over which files you index. The program makes it simple for business users to organize files by project or client, and for home users to manage their collections and hobbies.

Indexer lets you create as many indexes as you need, each containing an unlimited number of keywords to make searching easy. Businesses can set up index files for their clients' Word documents, Adobe PDF files, and RTF text documents. Home users can create an index for their music files, movies, or photographs. Each business colleague and each family member can use Indexer to speed up the file retrieval process for the computer files that interest them. Indexer can track thousands of files, and deliver lightning-fast results. Assign keywords to groups of files, or add comments to individual files. Then perform quick, accurate searches for keywords in your comments.

When you retrieve a file that interests you, you can open it directly in its parent application. Alternatively, you can use Indexer's built-in viewers to examine files. Even if you don't have Microsoft Word installed, you can view Word documents full-screen. It's easy to scroll and zoom, and search for words and phrases within a document. Similarly, you can examine, zoom, navigate, and search within PDF files. You can play and pause Flash animations, video files, and music.

Digital camera users will appreciate that Indexer provides nearly instant access to photos. You can search for keywords within the EXiF image headers. If you're using a GPS-enabled camera, you can even search for specific GPS EXiF information in your pictures. In addition to working with Word (doc) documents, PDF files, RTF files, and Shockwave flash (SWF) movies, Indexer supports all popular movie formats (avi, mpeg, wmv), image files (png, tif, bmp, gif, jpg), and music formats (mp3, wav, wma).

It's simple to manage your index files. Modify an index's keywords by dragging and dropping pre-loaded keywords into the categories that you have created, or add your own keywords. Reassign selected files to different keywords, singly or in batches. Import files and keywords from one index file to another index file. Assign some files to the "favorites" category, and access them even faster.

Indexer's reporting system lets you generate professional reports of the contents of your index files. You can display thumbnails of your image files. Even if you don't own Adobe Acrobat, you can print your reports in standard PDF format, including Acrobat-compatible thumbnails and bookmarks.

Whether you're a business person who needs immediate access to files by client or by project, a collector or hobbyist who wants to organize large collections of files, or a home user who needs to take control of the thousands of files that have accumulated on their hard drive, DotRational Indexer has the tools that you need.
