General Question

[Todd - Speedy Scan]

We are using Lucene its great and it will search in readable Adobe PDF files
after installing the Adobe I Filter. We are now trying

to search in a outlook email printed to Adobe PDF but it yields no search
results even though the text is readable within

that individual PDF, I guess it is some form of Ifilter required but I can
not locate it. I am just looking for some advice on how to do this.

 

Another general question - can Lucene be set to search on and locate on file
names in addition to text inside a file?

Only if you write the code to access the filter. Lucene doesn't know about
converters, it only takes plain text.

That looks more like a problem with the filter, not with Lucene.

Sure, if you index the filename into a field and send the query to that
field (e.g. "filename:foobar").
