This is a feature we could look at for v3.3, as one of our engineers is already looking into possibilities around this area.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike
thanks for your answer…

this means that this feature is not native inside alfresco now, right?

so I need to develop a customization in java… do you know a library open source
for open a pdf and search a word inside it? I've found http://www.jpedal.org/

thanks
ugo

I should also be clear, that this will be implemented in Share, not the Explorer client.

Sorry, I have no experience with such libraries.

Thanks,
Mike
