Greetings fellow Swish-e users,
I have recently completed installation of Swish-e on an apache server
machine with the follows details:

Swish-e version - 2.4.5
Apache version - 2.0.52

I have two short questions:

1) I have noticed that indexing of PDF files seems to be limited to the
root directory. I have PDFs in the root directory and ones in a sub
directory. Only PDFs in the root directory ever appear in search
results. It is my understanding that swish-e automatically recurses
subdirectories when indexing. Is this not also the case with indexing of
PDF's?

2) I have also noticed that Swish-e does not seem to be indexing numbers
inside of Excel or other Office files very well. When I search for a
number I know to be in an indexed file, for example 22469, the search
often yeilds no results.

Here is the contents of my configuration file:

IndexFile index.swish-e
IndexDir /var/www/html
IndexDir /var/www/twiki/data
FollowSymLinks yes

Any support you can provide is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Peter
