Dear PDF Zone, Is anyone familiar with the PDF formats that iPlanet will successfully search? I have been having problems with OmniPage pro PDF image on text file types. The OmniPage Pro *.PDF files (PDF-Normal) types are indexed correctly. Does anyone have a vocabulary to describe the various PDF file types? It is sometimes hard to describe the differences in PDF functionality without defining the various PDF forms. I have been using the following terms because I read the terms at least once and they seem descriptive. Searchable PDFs: PDF-Composition = A PDF created from an electronic text file that maintains editable text. PDF-Normal = A PDF file created by scanning a document then OCRing the text to form a PDF that maintains editable text. PDF-Searchable = A PDF created by scanning a document then OCRing the text to form a PDF with an picture image of the page and searchable text unedit-able beneath the image. UnSearchable PDFs: PDF - Image Only = A PDF created by scanning a page of images or text to form an Picture of the Page. PDF - Image Only = A PDF created by distilling an electronic Image to form a PDF with no captured text. Am I missing any.
