iFilters
NOTES:
- All iFilters are to be installed on SQL Server.
- SQL 2005 users: read KB1000010.pdf before proceeding.
The Windows operating system comes pre-configured with several standard iFilters (indexing filters). These iFilters offer fast full-text searching on Microsoft Office files, text documents, HTML files, and others.
To get the full power and capability of Document Locator, install any or all of the additional iFilters listed below. These iFilters allow Document Locator to index and full-text search image files, CAD files, PDF files, and more. Some of the filters are free downloads. Others are offered from third-party developers and require either registration or licensing. Each link below takes you to the download site where installation instructions are included.
