In an update to this PDF files were always a bit temperamental.
The document would be search indexed but you may notice there was some times an encoding issue.
To solve this, you can upload xpdf directly to serve your install without root access. I have attached the exact folder I have on my installation - it's an old version but works fine nonetheless.
Instructions:
1, Unzip the attached zip file in your root installation.
2, Ensure the pdftotext file is executable (file permissions 0744)
2, Modify your config file to reflect xpdf directory. Something like below:-
Code: Select all/* XPDF / pdftotext settings. Remember to use double backslashes (\) to represent
* one backslash (\).
* http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/
*/
define('PDFTOTEXT_PATH', "/home/yourwebsite/OpenCATS/.xpdf-3.02pl2-linux/pdftotext");
3, Try it out
