The Document Viewer

The Document Viewer at a glance

FileHound has been designed to ensure your important documents are front and centre and easily viewable. By default every document you open is presented in our standard document view with all the relevant tools and services intuitively laid out around your document.

Standard document view

You are able to drill down into this view to access features and tools such as:

• Thumbnail page views if it is a multi page document
• Rotate the view clockwise and anticlockwise - great for when that document scan has be performed upside down.
• Search content within the document and highlight keywords
• Zoom in and out of the document and easily scroll around the view - handy for CAD drawings
• Open the document view in 'full screen' mode.

Once you're finished, simply let go of the mouse.
