Help!
I have setup Sharepoint 2007 and search services which works great!
Except for PDFs ... i have followed the instructions on the forums to
install Ifilter .. hack the registry .. etc etc ...
But all the instructions refers to something like:
Add the .pdf file type to the content index. To do this, follow these steps:
a. Connect to the portal site, and then click Site Settings.
b. On the Site Settings page, click Configure search and indexing under Search Settings and Indexed Content.
c. On the Configure Search and Indexing page, click Include file types under General Content Settings and Indexing Status.
d. On the Specify File Types to Include page, click New File Type.
e. On the Add File Type page, type pdf in the File extension box, and then click OK.
I don't have the option anywhere to add the pdf extension ... i don't
the "configure search" link anywhere either ...? Any help please?
Note - I installed the Sharepoint directly from the SP1 installation
if that makes any difference ...

Try these instructions instead:

Search settings should be in the SSP.
Definitely upgrade to latest version!
