That won't work; ZpdfDocument is for _creating_ PDFs... Use "Document Library" instead. It uses the pdf2text program on a unix box (installed with Xpdf package) to index full-text of the PDF contents. We use it to index vendor documentation and Visio diagrams output in PDF format; I'm sure this would work for you, one way or another. http://www.zope.org/Members/Kaivo/DocumentLibrary If nothing else, you could use the PDF file extraction code within DocumentLibrary in your own solution...
