Features
Searching is not ‘blind’. The main window features a fully scrollable word list of all the words in your files. Click on a word to enter it in the search query, see a scrollable list of results, and view the selected result with your query words highlighted – all in the same window. Web format images are displayed in the viewer. If photo images contain geolocation data, simply press a Map Pin button on the taskbar to display the location on a map.
Quickly insert Boolean operators with ‘All’ or ‘Any’ word defaults. Search using a ‘list of words’ for eDiscovery/eDisclosure. Search expansion options include multilingual stemming and the ability to use multiple pre-defined and a user-defined thesaurus file simultaneously. You can export results as time-stamped XML, CSV or TSV file, or copy document text, append notes, and save to a timestamped file.
