The new file formats Google Docs Viewer can open are as follows:
- Microsoft Excel (.XLS and .XLSX)
- Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 / 2010 (.PPTX)
- Apple Pages (.PAGES)
- Adobe Illustrator (.AI)
- Adobe Photoshop (.PSD)
- Autodesk AutoCad (.DXF)
- Scalable Vector Graphics (.SVG)
- PostScript (.EPS, .PS)
- TrueType (.TTF)
- XML Paper Specification (.XPS)
Remember that the Google Docs Viewer could already be used to open Microsoft Word documents (including the newer docx format), PDFs, presentations, and a few other formats. Basically, all of the essential Microsoft Office formats are now covered (I’m sure Microsoft is very happy :) )
Seeing PSD on the list makes me very happy as I always get photoshop files sent to me and it’s a pain since the viewer didn’t support the format. That one update is going to save me a lot of time!
Since you’ll need a Google Account to use this, here’s how to enable sign-in security on your Google Account.

I use Google Docs more and more these days. Especially now that I can edit docs on my Galaxy S.

Yes, it’s absolutely great. I use it to open PDF attachments.
