I read that it has a built in ZIP extension, nothing about PDF.

Ticket #192

I'm not that familiar with PHP, but I did a quick search and found this script. http://www.conradish.net/pdfhi.php.txt (from: http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread3742.html )
And then for Word docs, here's something that converts word files to other formats: http://www.granneman.com/techinfo/windows/extractcontentfromword.htm (requires a windows os i think)
if we are willing to pay a fee for licensing would this option also work? http://www.phpwordlib.motion-bg.com/

tshimada:
Hm... I don't know a way for either... Would it be possible to integrate Google search with an aC installation?


I honestly don't know. The thing that I do know is that GoogleBot can't go past login screen so it can't index content posted by users.

Or you know some other, free PHP tool that can extract text from PDF files?

Searching through office documents is not hard, but it is unreliable because they are closed formats and I don't know how they work. Or you know some text extraction tool written in PHP? :D
