Hello community !

How to configure ezfind to index binaryfiles like pdf, is this something related to this settings : SolrFieldMapSettings and this class : ezfSolrDocumentFieldBase

It seems to map a given datatype to raw result

Thanks for help :-)

Indexing binary files with ez find requires external converters to extract plain text

You may use for example:

http://projects.ez.no/eztika

For pdfs, configure xpdf's pdftotext for best results (a wraper script is provided in the eztika extension)
