<p>Quick Look in <a href="http://osxdaily.com/tag/mac-os-x-10-7/">Mac OS X Lion</a> includes a “Open with [Application Name]” button in the upper right corner of the windows, but you’re not limited to launching the file in only that app.</p>

<p><strong>Right-Click on the suggested application name</strong> to show a contextual menu where you can select to open the file in another compatible app, this menu is very much like the Finders “Open With” menu that pops up with right-click. </p>

<p>If you’re not familiar with Quick Look, select a file or folder in the OS X Finder and then hit the Spacebar. The resulting window will give you a preview of images, text and pdf documents, and more. Quick Look is also further customizable through third party plugins.</p>
