Quick Look

Niraqua DjVu adds a Quick Look preview for .djvu files, so you can check a document straight from Finder:

  1. Select a .djvu file in Finder.
  2. Press the space bar.
  3. A preview window opens with the document.

Press the space bar again, or Esc, to close the preview.

  • Scroll through the pages of the document.
  • Click Open with Niraqua DjVu in the Quick Look window to open the full app when you need search, text recognition, or export.

With the app installed, .djvu files also get real thumbnails: the first page of the document becomes the file’s icon, and multi-page documents get a folded corner, the way Preview shows PDFs. Thumbnails appear in Finder’s icon and gallery views and anywhere else the system shows file icons.

Quick Look previews are generated by the system. If one comes up blank, see Troubleshooting.
