I purchased this primarily to search pdf content on my shared hosted wordpress site. My expectation is that the search results will direct people to the page hosting the pdf file. I have followed all documentation to set up the index and the serach but so far failed to get any results. The search is setup on a page named /test/ and I need to search all pdf files embeded in the pages (so far I only have five pages completed. All pdfr files are searchable pdf’s so that should be fine.
Please advise
November 10, 2020 at 1:48 pm #30235Hi,
Thank you for the details!
I downloaded one of the PDF documents for local testing, I hope you don’t mind. I’m afraid that none of the parsers is capable of extracting the document contents. The most advanced one (Smalot Parser) was able to get around 100 words from the files, but the rest is only gibberish. I tried a few different ones locally as well, also converting the files, looking at the datastreams, but no luck. I’m afraid there is no standalone PHP parser currently able to extract these documents. These might require a more advanced server side library, which is unfortunately not possible to integrate with the plugin.
Best,
