Peek is a browser extension that lets you preview dozens of types of documents before you download them. Just hover over a file's link, and Peek will display an interactive preview of the file instantly. Peek also allows you to expand a preview to a new browser window for easier viewing.
Peek supports previews for the following file formats:
- PDF and RTF Files
- Word Documents (.doc, .docx)
- Excel Documents (.xls, .xlsx)
- PowerPoint Presentations (.ppt, .pptx)
- WebM, MP4, GIFV, and OGG/OGV Video
- MP3 and WAV Audio
In addition to direct file links, Peek also supports previewing links to public Google Docs files, Imgur GIFV links, and Gfycat links.
New in Peek 2.2:
- New design for welcome and settings pages
- Previews are no longer created for HTTP content on HTTPS pages
- Removed support for Flash video file previews
- Updated jQuery and Tooltipster libraries to latest version
