Re: [Solved] Problem Using Converter to Search for Text in PDF Files

I've figured out the solution to this problem: the xdoc2txt.exe file must be in the same folder as the installation folder for the FreeCommander.exe file... Hey cbthomas, The above is not true. I have installed xdoc2txt.exe in its own directory and it works like a charm. If you putting the xdoc2txt...

Re: Viewer - MPC-BE as custom video/audio player

Hi Dreamer,

I've used MPC for ages. It is a great Media Player, but it hasn't been updated in years and the last message from the developer was, that development is discontinued.

IMHO it is not worth the effort to include MPC as a custom player in FC due to security reasons.

Re: 844 - Minor - Color scheme remove is incorrect

Hey Dreamer,

I don't understand this report.

Remove corresponds to delete IMHO.

What should remove mean to you?

Re: distinction between 2 different PDF files

Perhaps you could use the Search and Converter, then search for any text or letter, "*" or "a" containing text, and for file *.pdf, and the files in the results panel should contain text, other pdf files should not contain text. For searching of the text in my Office files (docx...

Re: distinction between 2 different PDF files

... I just noticed: TotalCommander (another file manager) has a plugin that does seem to be able to do that. See https://totalcmd.net/plugring/pdfOCR.html Have not tested that yet. Might be possible to have a plugin for FreeCommander which similar functionality? Or (even better) built in in FreeCom...

Re: distinction between 2 different PDF files

Hi mgroen,

I think you are mainly talking about PDFs rendered as image or with text.
I'm not familiar with a practical way of differencing between the two types.

You might want to check into tools such as Ghostscript.

Hey Forez, I think I know what you mean. Whether using an external search application or the search function in windows explorer, they followed a specific logic: 1 *file name part*.* this would deliver a list of files in which file name part is contained irregardless of the position of file name par...

Re: 844 php file not displayed in quick viewer

Cannot confirm,

.php files are viewed normally (as text) in Quickviewer

Re: 844 Thumbnail View - Space between thumbnails too large
