Can you please elaborate what specific feature you understand to be "conceptual search"? Alfresco has metadata and fulltext search capabilities, and provides quick, advanced and faceted search UIs in the standard application Alfresco Share. Alfresco generally supports any file type, though with regards to fulltext search capabilities obviously not all file types provide any searchable text (e.g. audio/video/graphic formats). Alfresco can be extended with components that provide transformations to text for those types, e.g. via speech-to-text transformations or applying OCR to images.

Thank you for quick reply.

I have attached list of types,Could you please verify that anyone of file type doesn't support conceptual search.

Is it searchable in all files including INDD file also.Because the INDD file data is exist in XMP file(Might be the data is in binary format.).

Again, what is "conceptual search" in terms of your expectation??

Alfresco is able to extract some default metadata from XMP-based files, but if you want to extract some specific / custom metadata you have to configure both the Alfresco data model to receive/store the data and the mapping of XMP to Alfresco data model.

If I search with some word,is it look into or searchable in all files with that word.?

When I am generating XMP file of INDD,XMP file,It contains <xmpGImg:image> tag.It is seems that whole information of INDD file in this tag.

Do I need to configure the above tag in Alfresco data model,If yes,Could you please elaborate that how to do it?

Could you please give the default metadata tags that alfresco read by-default?
