Tips: Reading download-only documents online Using simple google search

14 Aug

Sometimes while surfing the web, we ecounter some very necessary data in .docx OR .pdf format which cant be read without downloading.

Although there are many online document readers present online with tons of features, there is one by google which is very fast.
NO, I am not talking about Google Docs.

Its the google’s “view as HTML” feature which you find in simple google search.
Just copy and paste the document’s link in google’s search box and search for it. If google has already index the file it will show you a link to view the document as Simple Html page. Click on it and you can read all the text in the document.

This tips might not work everytime depending on google’s choice to index the file or not. But huh ! nothing bad in giving it a try instead of downloading the file.
