Posted July 28, 200717 yr Hi, Instant search is not searching inside (ie contents of) pdf files - the windows desktop search (on my XP) was working GREAT, but after (a fresh, not upgrade) installation of Vista, I lost the index and needed to be rebuilt. The "pdf filter" is checked along with "Index properties and file contents" box, in "Indexing Options->Advanved option->File Types". I have rebuilt the index many times and waited long enough for "Indexing complete" to appear on the "Indexing options" tab, but still search does NOT work INSIDE the pdf documents. Any suggestions?
