sorry for being OT, I tried two PDF newsgroups, but didn't get any response
there.
I've been asked to create a CD-ROM with loads of PDF and Word documents. Do
you know a search engine that can perform a full text search on both these
formats? I've already done something similar for our Intranet, using
Microsoft Index server with an Acrobat plugin, but this only works in a
client server environment and not on a CD.
Thanks for your help,
