In this tutorial you learned how to preview commonly used files with QuickLook, generate thumbnails and even enable simple PDF editing. But you can learn even more on the subject. For example, you can provide custom previews for your custom file type using Preview extensions or even provide custom thumbnails for your custom file format using Quick Look thumbnails extensions.
