It means that you can search yourcomputer and find the exact document you're looking for. Look for oneword or a phrase and Find Desktop Standard goes out and finds it.In testing it out I found the program to be easy-to-use and intuitive,perfect for users with all levels of experience. And it's very fast.

Find Desktop Standard also utilizes O.C.R. which stands foroptical character recognition. That means that it can really get intoyour documents and find what you need. In testing it out I had it indexmy Reviews folder and my Editorial folder. In the screenshot you can see the listing it provided when I did a search on aspecific word. The program will also highlight the search term you use.I also indexed my email which was very cool. It allowed me tosearch through all my email (I have email going back 10 years) and findthe communications I wanted. Slick!

I'm also making it a Dr.File Finder Favorite and those are few and far between. So,if you have lots of documents and you'd like to be able to pull up thecomplete text when you do a search, this is the product you needto try. I recommend it!
