Viewer for multiple file types: Word, Excel, PDF, images, multimedia, text etc.
Universal Viewer is a pretty handy tool to have around when you're working with many different types of files during your day. It is a lightweight application which can view a myriad of different file types.
Generally, you'd likely require several different programs installed in order to quickly view files you have saved on your hard drive or external media. Whether you're browsing your hard drive, digital camera memory card or external or network hard drives, Universal Viewer fits nicely into your Windows Shell, giving you right-click access to view many types of files.
Some of the support file types which Universal Viewer can open include text files, web pages, mp3 music, video files, images and various types of office documents. Microsoft Word, Open Office, JPG or GIF images, PowerPoint.. the list goes on. It even supports PDF files and opens them seemingly faster than the official Adobe product for viewing PDF documents.
Universal Viewer is exactly that and isn't intended for editing the various types of files it opens, so you'll require additional software to perform editing. Despite that, Universal Viewer is efficient and supports more than enough different formats to be Swiss-knife-ish!
