Hello. .Docx documents do not appear to be being indexed. I used a unique string in a .docx, but the .docx is not returned when I search on "one".

I'm trying to extract text from PDF files using an iFilter. The Adobe PDF iFilter that is distributed with Adobe Reader is awful, returning HRESULT E_FAIL messages for many PDF documents. The FoxIt PDF IFilter works beautifully on virtually all of the PDFs I've been using for testing. The problem is that every time the Adobe Updater...
In python I have the following function: def is_a_nice_element(element, parameter): #do something return True or False Now I would like to filter a list with this function as predicate, giving a fixed parameter. Python has the itertools.ifilter function, but I can't figure out how to pass the parameter. Is this possible? If no...

I'm having issues with using the Office iFilters. I installed them to our server, and verified that .PPTX was an available extension using the sys.fulltext_document_types system view in SQL Server 2005. I then rebuilt our FT catalog, and reviewed the logs to make sure everything was fine. No errors. I did a full text search in my tab...
Has anyone gotten the IFilter sample from Microsoft to work on 64bit Windows 7? I am following the exact steps in the Readme.txt and I don't get the search to return the proper results. Is there something I need to do to get this to work on 64bit windows that I am overlooking? Thanks, Jeff ...
I have an IFilter written in Delphi that I'm trying to get working under 64 bit Windows 7 Desktop Search. Due to it being developed in Delphi I can only compile this as a 32 Bit DLL. To work around this I am trying to write a 64bit IFilter Dll in Visual C++ which internally uses my 32Bit IFilter Com Object using the DllSurogate techn...
Where to begin.... I've inherited a application that searches for strings within files from a previous programmer (that had no documenation) its using EPocalipse.IFilter namespace. It has a few issues, the first of which is the VS Project is missing FilterReader.cs, FilterLoader.cs, among others I believe are required for EPocalipse IFi...

My development team are having a problem having snippets of text shown for search results in windows 7 for our own custom files (note we are NOT talking about the preview pane that uses the IPreviewHandler interface). An example of what I mean for .txt files is shown below: The text snippet shown here with the highlighted result is no...
I've got a class I need to read a data from. It's derived from TextReader (particularly FilterReader from http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/IFilter.aspx ). ReadToEnd() hangs when reading large files. ReadLine() doesn't work at all, so the only way to read in chunks is using .Read() function. MSDN suggests using Peek() and check if it retu...
