Setting Up Document Preview

When users preview supported file types directly in the User Portal through the web browser, they can see part of the file without having to install the application that created it.
This type of preview commonly uses the Quick JS Preview feature which enables previewing of DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, and PDF files when DocConverter is enabled. See LibreOffice Windows Instructions.

  1. When a user selects a file in the User Portal, a Preview button becomes available.

  2. When the user clicks the Preview button, a separate window opens showing an image of the file.
    Beginning in FileCloud 22.1, the preview can be edited with the same Web edit/Office Online and Edit in Desktop applications that are available for editing the file from the file listing.
