A system and method for extracting full text from source files of any size in such a manner that all text can be rapidly and accurately searched via search engine while maintaining satisfactory system performance. A software tool that integrates with file shares or an enterprise content management system with the ability to merge and serialize the results of the extracted text via surrogate index files. The software tool is configured to handle text from large files in order to extract, store and access the file such that all of the text is searchable, regardless of the size of the original document in a reasonable amount of time. The Analytics Engine will omit this field during search and handle this field separately from other fields.

Embodiments provide a web-based editing tool that intelligently leverages certain functionality of a browser, web client, desktop client, and native software at the client side to provide seamless user experience when editing a file over a network. Responsive to a user selecting a file for editing, the web client may send a passive content request to a web server embedded in the desktop client at a specific address on the client device. If no response, the web client prompts the user to start or install the desktop client on the client device. If a response is received, the web client sends a request to the desktop client with a user identifier and authorization to download the file from a server. The desktop client downloads the file, opens it in the native software, monitors the file being edited, and updates a delta associated with the file to the server.
