Preview 1.0 Type Library (PREVIEWLib)

I would like to use the Preview 1.0 Type Library visual component in my C# project (file name: shimgvw.dll, wrapper

AxPREVIEWLib). Unfortunately the component is not documented (at least I was not able to find any useful documentation). Some colleges of mine say that it is because the functionality of the component may vary over operating systems.

Can somebody send some link about this component or suggest a similar but better documented one? Is it possible that this component won’t be supported in future version of the operating system? As I know it should work with Win 98 or better operating systems but it would be cool to see the official doc (if there any).

Thank you for your help in advance!
