You have NOT supplied an example of the text you extracted from the document. But let's assume that the interesting string is exactly what you expect.
Have you looked at your index with Luke to see if the data is there? I *strongly* suggest you get a copy of Luke (google lucene luke) to examine indexes with. The existence of the write.lock file suggests that you haven't closed your index prior to searching it. Although flushing it would probably work. Be aware that you cannot see changes to an index if the reader you use has been opened before the indexing operation. Also, there is some period of time when the indexed data is buffered by the writer, and I'm unsure (but doubt) it's available until it's been flushed. I suspect that your problem is not related to PDF, but rather to whether you've properly indexed data and closed your index prior to searching it..... The other possibility is that your analyzer is parsing things "interestingly". StandardAnalyzer() does some interesting things when tokenizing, including lowercasing the input stream. Although that shouldn't have been a problem since you use the same analyzer for indexing and searching. Also, try query.toString to see what is actually searched, that often gives insights. The aforementioned Luke will allow you to submit queries to the index, including explaining what the actual query produced is. What are the file sizes of your index files?

Hi Erick, Befoe indexing I have printed the doc, and I have given the output also.It is printing well. Kindly please check my post again following... " System.out.println(doc); //Following code is for making index" and the corresponding output is...
