| Mar 30, 2021 at 18:12 | comment | added | Steve Barnes | A couple of cautions - there are 2 fundamental types of pdf files files that contain the text plus layout instructions (very common for generated PDFs and reasonably so for print to pdf) and files that contain pictures of the pages - the latter type need to be OCRed to be searchable. There are also 2 basic types of MS Office files .doc & .docx, etc. both are a bit of a pain to search. | |
