Inquiry Standard Edition

Inquiry Standard Edition is a Windows software application whose purpose is to help you create bookmarks and save text, images and Flash files from webpages. You can use it as a standalone program or integrated within IE.

You can preview website content and perform searches on the Internet directly from the main window. A help manual is available in case you have any questions regarding the program’s capabilities.

An Explorer-like panel provides quick access to a list with saved webpages, which can be organized in custom folders.

Inquiry Standard Edition gives you the freedom to save webpages to HTML, CHM, MHT or EXE file format, export images to a folder on your computer (the tool is able to automatically identify the photos and lets you preview them in a dedicated window), as well as save Flash files.

The application helps you send the saved pages by email as hyperlinks, whole page or attachment, add custom comments and keywords to each page, and automatically save all visited pages.

The application comes packed with an editor which can be used for altering the text and objects displayed on webpages. You can drag and drop the selected area to the preferred position on the webpage, print data, undo or redo your actions, cut, copy, paste or delete items, and save the webpage.

What’s more, you are allowed to insert hyperlinks, pictures, horizontal lines, date, time, address, as well as user-defined text which can be customized in terms of font, size, color and alignment.

All things considered, Inquiry Standard Edition comes with several handy features for helping you extract content from webpages for offline viewing. The GUI cannot be described as highly intuitive so you may need extra time to get used to working with it.

In case you are looking for advanced functions, such as plugins to automate regular actions, exporting and editing options for the saved pages (e.g. APA, MLA), and printing mode, you can have a look at Inquiry Professional Edition.
