I have problems to find PDF content.
I can find it with Windows Indexer and also with our Everything script.
The installed x64 iFilter is PDFlib TET PDF IFilter
https://www.pdflib.com/download/tet-pdf-ifilter/
I use it since many years and it runs fine as can be seen with the Windows search indexer.
XY searches thru 163 *.pdf files in 10 seconds, which I find much to long, but it finds nothing.
Configuration for using iFilters is set to "Use 64-bit iFilters for content search"

Select a PDF file and run
text extracttext();

Re: Content not found with PDF iFilter
With the TET PDF iFilter the result of text extracttext(); is empty.
If I set the PDF iFilter to SumatraPDF or PDF-XChange it finds text
but still doesn't find the content which is for shure there.

Here is one of many examples.
Extract the pdf file from it and search for the word Computing

Re: Content not found with PDF iFilter
Not for me, tested with 3 available iFilter modules
Isn't a real problem as I do content searches always with Everything
