indexing PDF files?

interesting in indexing PDF, Microsoft Word, etc. files

Hey everyone!

You may remember me as the guy who posted a few weeks ago because he couldn't get YACS to work; the solution ended up increasing the PHP max memory in php.ini.

Anyways, the YACS installation for my university is coming along beautifully. We're constantly being amazed by the feature set and how we can use it (for example, the per-section configuration options are wonderful for different departments of a college!).

Anyways, I am interested in indexing Microsoft Word, PDF, and other types of files. Other CMSes have this functionality, and I'm wondering whether YACS has it and I just haven't found the documentation, or it just doesn't have any.

I also wanted to say that as a software developer, with the proper help (e.g., finish these files) I can help write the code to make this happen! What do you think, Bernard?

Thanks, and take care!
