*.tga format - The most used file extension and its thumbnail view

rgb_15bits_palette.pngTGA (Truevision Graphics Adapter) is the most popular file format used in the still video editing and is widely supported by the most image editing applications. It was created and developed by Truevision for its Targa, Vista, NuVista and Targa 2000 graphics adapters, all of them are capable of capturing and save into digital data from NTSC and PAL video. The reason behind its popularity is that it was the first 24 bit truecolor bitmap format used in a PC and its device independent structure that make it compatible to any display adapter manufactured by Truevision. Now days TGA file formats are mostly refered as Targa 16, Targa 24, and Targa 32 bit which are mainly the Hardware Specification form which these are created the number after the file format defines the color depth.

But some time it annoyed when anyone have to work with several files but there is no thumbnail in windows explorer. And every time to work on any specific file the user have to open a image viewer to view its preview. Which becomes very tough job to edit with TGA file format. But here is add-on that can directly show its thumbnail view in windows explorer . Download and install it and with in no moment its thumbnail view can be viewed in windows explorer.

Thumbnail View of Adobe Illustrator is missing in explorer .. here is solution

adobe-logo.jpgAs i have already posted a blog about the reason behind the thumbnail view of Photoshop CS3 files missing in Windows Explorer (For full explanation click the below link given) I have came in knowledge it was also the same thing with Adobe Illustrator files and its EPS file format or somehow it is missing. With a lot of searching and experimenting it was also found that for Illustrator also a dll file and its registry settings missing which makes its live preview in Windows Explorer with a blank one. If you are also facing the same problem pleaze download the from the link given below and copy the dll files in the windows program files folder where you will find common files/Adobe/Shell/(if any case you don’t fnd the folder plz create one) and after that run the registry file provided. You will again find the thumbnail preview of Adobe Illustrator in Windows Explorer.

This is also very effective even if you don’t have Illustrator or Photoshop installed. It means even if don’t want to install these heavy softwares you can still be able to see their preview.
