Indexing Attachments In PDF

[sty324]

Hello,
Can anyone help with this question? I have a very similar situation.

I would like to know if someone tried to index attachment in a pdf…
Here are creating pdf from emails and attachments are add into the pdf (as attachment) with pdfcreator.

I read that apache tika can help for doing this, but I don't know if it's possible with index lucene on alfresco.

Does someone have a trick or an idea. Thanks.

Hi sty324 ,

Alfresco version onwards 3.2 supports IMAP protocol. The protocol allows email applications that support IMAP (including Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, etc.) to connect to and interact with Alfresco repositories directly from the mail application . Emails will be stored in alfresco along with attachment . The  content  and attachment is search able also.

Thanks,
