Depends on what your config is and what your document looks like.
Post a very small example.

By the way, there's no "main index" -- everything is indexed under a
metatag.  And when a metatag is not specified via the config then
swish uses the "swishdefault" metatag.

Create a SWISH::Filter that "filters" text/html.   When it processes
the web page then look for the associated pdf file, extract out the
content and add it into the content of the html document.

You mean the PDFs are not available online?  If they are available
online then seems like a search returning the pdf might be just what
someone is looking for.  But I see your point if you want to just the
search to point to a product page.

Yes, it would.
