Press Release
Say you’re at lunch and someone sends you an Illustrator file, like the logo you’ve been waiting to approve for your big project. Up to now, you’d have to wait until you got back to the office to see the .ai file on your Creative Suite workstation. But with SneakPeek, you can not only see what the artwork looks like, but also get important detailed information about the file. Information like fonts used, linked images and defined swatches.
So now, along with your pastrami on rye, you can see that the color your team has come up with is TOTALLY wrong and instead should look more like the mustard you just got on your beret.
The $9.99 SneakPeek renders previews* of graphics files stored on your iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. It works by providing an “Open in SneakPeek” button to your favorite iOS applications like Mail, Dropbox, Safari and just about any app that gives you access to files. It also gives you access to useful information** including fonts used, names of linked images and a preview list of swatches.
Preview also includes:

Fonts

Swatches
As soon as a document is opened with SneakPeek, it gets to work scouring the file for information and pulling various elements to generate the best quality preview available. And staying in-step with the latest technologies, it’ll even preview multiple pages for Illustrator documents with PDF compatibility and InDesign CS5 documents saved with multiple previews.
* The quality of previews depends on the quality of those embedded within the document. Multi-page preview support for InDesign CS5 and some Illustrator documents with PDF compatibility. See our blog about optimizing previews with InDesign documents.
** Documents prior to CS5 may not display all of the same metadata.
