PDF-indexing for search

Martin Møller Christensen

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to have PDF files indexed and made searchable within a DynamicWeb project?
I have search functionality for ex. pages, but are not sure how to go about implementing such functionality with PDFs.

Is this something you guys can shed some light on?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Martin,

You can implement a custom index builder that is able to extract text from Word, PDF, etc. and place it in the index.
Here is an example of how you can do that: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/forum/development/development/index-pdf-content

Best regards,
