FoxTrot Personal Search indexes file contents and metadata (file name, author, title and more). Instead of merely showing which files contain your keywords, FoxTrot Personal Search highlights these terms in a preview of the document itself.
You can navigate to next and previous occurences, jump to a particular hit and and select text, all without needing to launch or switch to another application.
FoxTrot displays full PDFs, word processing documents and pictures; it even plays found QuickTime movies, mp3 files and more.
