The qlgenerator file extension is associated with Apple Mac OS X.
Quick Look, a service introduced in Mac OS X 10.5, is the innovative technology that gives you a sneak peek of entire files — even multiple-page documents and video — without opening them.
All you have to do is select a file in the Finder and press the Space bar. An elegant transparent window appears, showing you the contents of the file instantly. It’s great when you’re looking for something specific but don’t have time to open lots of files to find it.
The qlgenerator files are stored in:
System > Library > Frameworks > QuickLook.framework directory in order to work correctly.

Third party plugins, such as PDF.qlgenerator, can be imported to System > Library > Frameworks > QuickLook.framework directory so the service can view the file type included in the qlgenerator file.
