I've a problem on a lot of pc running XP 32bit SP3 and Acrobat Reader X or XI.
Trying to locate files for "contained text" using the XP Search function, it do not find words in PDF files.
I've tried many solution found on google, but none resolve the problem.
My pc has the correct registry value for the PersistenHandler in HKCR\.pdf keys ({F6594A6D-D57F-4EFD-B2C3-DCD9779E382E}) (see below).
Trying to replace this value with the default windows text filter ({5e941d80-bf96-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}), XP find only some words (it is probably normal, XP text filter is not written to manage PDF files).
I've checked (with Sysinternal ProcessMonitor utility) if ACRORDIF.DLL was invoked from XP search and it appens but it do not find words in PDF.
Searchind words in PDF directly from the reader, it works fine.
How can I resolve this problem?
Thanks
Carlo
