Plone full text indexing in pdfs on win7

I installed Plone 4.2.1 using the Windows Installer on my DELL XPS15 with Windows 7 64bit.  Then made ​​an update to 4.2.4, it's running well so far everything. I've created my first page, change the logo.

But, if I include a PDF document as a file, the contents of that file cannot be found when searching. According to the description it should work but the full-text search in PDF's.  Am I missing something there yet, or you have to set somewhere to activate or what?

You need to install the XPDF package to convert PDF to text for Plone to be able to index the contents.

Download it from http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/download.html, where you'll find a pre-compiled Windows binary.
