Supported File Formats

Although InfoLayout is able to add to catalog any file, it extracts additional information from some other files. Supported formats and features:


 Archives

7z, arj, bz2, cab, cpio, deb, gz, lzh, rar, rpm, tar, z, zip

InfoLayout can process any archived files like any others on your disks. Nested archives are supported as well. Of course it takes more time for processing archived files but often it's handy to keep files archived and to not unpack them.

 Images

bmp, cut, dds, g3, gif, hdr, ico, iff, lbm, jng, jpg, jif, jpe, koa, mng

InfoLayout can automatically generate thumbnails for images and put them in catalog. This makes catalog file larger but it's useful to have thumbnails without disks. Additionally InfoLayout extracts descriptions from images.

 Music

mp3, ape, flac, mpc, ogg, wv, tta, spx, CD-Audio

When scanning music files, InfoLayout extracts mp3 tag info so you can search later by individual field like artist, album or track title. Files in catalog can be arranged by those fields as well. CDDB/freedb supported for downloading info about CD-Audio disks.

 Video

avi, wmv, asf, 3gp, flv, mpeg

InfoLayout extracts info from video clips such as codec name, frame size, length, bitrate etc. Additionally video thumbnails can be automatically created and added to catalog.

 Documents

plain-text files, doc, html, ppt, rtf, vsd, wri, xls, OneNote*, PDF*, any other with IFilter interface provided.

InfoLayout can extract to catalog text file's snippet for quick viewing document content and allows to do full-text search among documents by their content. Full-featured search by keyword, phrase etc.



To index and search OneNote and PDF files you should install IFilter from Microsoft and Adobe.
