Indexing PDF Files on Vista

[Dave Wood [MS]]

As long as you have the *latest* version of Adobe Reader or Foxit Reader
then Vista search should be able to search the contents of PDF files. These
products include a plug-in into the Vista search indexer that makes it
possible for these files to be indexed and searched.

Thanks Dave, but I have the latest version (2.0 1606) of Foxit Reader installed.

Those using Adobe (even 8.10) on Vista64 will still need Foxit's
ifilter. After it's installed, no further configuration action
is needed.
