- Out of the box, you won't see the PDF icon in document libraries as you see MS Office icons next to office documents.
- The search will look at the PDF document's properties but not in its content.
PDF Icon:
- Download the small icon file from adobe. http://www.adobe.com/misc/linking.html#pdficon
- Save the icon in the c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\IMAGES folder. You can rename it to match the standard naming convention.
- Open (in notepad) the DOCICON.XML file located in the c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\XML folder.
- In ByExtension section add the tag >Mapping Key="pdf" Value="icpdf.gif" OpenControl=""/>
-Change the direction of the first > (just left to Mapping) to make the markup work right. - Save.
- Reset IIS
- You should see now all PDF documents with the correct icon.
I will post the instructions for PDF content search soon.
