Todd, You'll need some way to extract the text from the PDF prior to indexing. I'm not familiar with any packages that can do that but I have heard of them. You may want to try searching the mailing list to see if there has been mention of one previously. Lucid Imagination hosts a great mailing list search tool at http://www.lucidimagination.com/search/

I am trying to search a document which contains lots of PDFs. I want to search a document, which contains a specific word, using Lucene.net. We are yielding results in text documents but not in PDF. Is there something we have to do to be able to search in PDF Documents. All ifilters have been installed on the computer so I do not think that is the issue. Regards, SPEEDY SOLUTIONS Todd McIndoo
