PDF iFilter in Vista x64?

[Guest John Adams]

I'm running Vista x64 Ultimate on a brand new system. I noticed in the

Index advanced options that it lists the pdf file type as usual but the text

to the side says "Registered IFilter is not found". Accordingly, pdfs are

not searched in their text and their icons do not show sample images.

 

Is this a common problem for Vista x64 or something wrong with my machine?

John:

Vista x64 as you.

I cannot see your problem in my system.

The pdf file has a check mark, the icon of the pdf reader I use (pdf reader

from foxitsoftware.com) and "File Properties Filter" (or however it is

translated from Spanish into English) to the right.

Could it be due to the fact that you maybe don't have a pdf reader program

installed in your PC?

Carlos,

 

The pdf file has a check mark in my list as well. To the right, however, it

says "Registered IFilter is not found". I have Adobe Reader 8 installed.

John:

I found this useful info:

http://blogs.msdn.com/ifilter/archive/2006/11/30/recent-ifilter-implementation-and-deployment-questions.aspx

Seems to be an Adobe 8.0 problem with Vista x64.

You might try with the reader I suggested from http://www.foxitsoftware.com.

It is freeware and lightweight.
