Feature "Quick View" to vies .pdf document with Google Docs viewer without opening (and downloading) the pdf document itself was new to me. But how can we enable it: Trying http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=inurl%3Apdffiles&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=2cca7b2e99206b9c will show an option.

But more typical searches only show "View as HTML" option...

Below is a web based viewer for pdf, postscript, and word documents. It converts each page to an image.

what i do is to keep a bookmark to
http://docs.google.com/gview?url=
in my browser and in case google doesn't offer a view link i copy the url and paste is after the equation sign..
works perfectly for pdf and ppt (which is great since i don't want to download ppts just to glance at them, less important with pdfs due to the browser plugin) |
Your tip is almost brilliant, hey thanks! |
glad i could help..
