Hi,
Yes, it can.
But of course, only text content inside a PDF can be searched. If the PDF is composed of images only, the document can't be searched because it cannot be indexed.

Thx.

One more qusetion…

Search engine use
org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardAnalyzer

I find it can search in chinese word.
But must do something change.
You cna chane SearchText like this
SearchText = "\" "+text+" \"";

But it can search chinese word in word ,excel, html,pdf .
Not in txt and PowerPoint.

I do not know how to fix it.
Can give me a suggestion ?

For the moment you need to put your search in quotes in the web-client.

Thanks,
