Install 3rd party PDF iFilter for index PDF file as attachment in e-mail (msg)

I have called Microsoft Permium Support, base on the reply, SharePoint 2013 does not support to index a PDF file attachment in E-mail (msg) except 3rd party iFilter installed. And they finally told me how to edit Windows Registry for install the Adobe iFilter.
But, the Adobe iFilter is too weak to call large PDF files. So, I would like to install and try the Foxit PDF iFilter, but I cannot find an installation guide for this 3rd party ifilter with SharePoint 2013. 
Does anyone here have the experience for Foxit PDF iFilter with SharePoint 2013 can help me?
I am not sure it is bug or feature in SharePoint 2013, but in case I still have to install 3rd party iFilter for index PDF file. I have no idea what is the out of box pdf file indexing support for.

You ca plan to use Foxit. 
steps are nearly the same which we use in sharepoint 2013
1. We need to update registry for pdf . Registry value is {987f8d1a-26e6-4554-b007-6b20e2680632}
2. we need to install the foxit ifilter
Here are steps for same

  • Memory Problems with Adobe PDF iFilter for 64-bit

    In preparation to rebuild my Windows Search Index, I installed the Adobe PDF iFilter for 64-bit on my system (Vista Business 64).  When I finally rebuilt the index, I wasn't too surprised by what I saw happen, namely, the SearchFilter.exe process would kick in whenever I wasn't using the system and just eat RAM.  One time I turned it on and it had allocated over 4,000 MB (and my system only has 4,030 MB available) so of course it was forcing all the other processes to hard fault (ie. everything was moving like molasses--for example, it took 20 minutes to put the thing to sleep).  But I just let it do it's work, figuring that perhaps this was to be expected relative to the small library of PDF's that I've accumulated on my computer, ranging from LaTeX generated text files, to containers for hi-res scans.  So, after a day and a half of basically not using my laptop, everything finally calmed down and I enjoyed the benefits of searching the content of my library from the Windows Start menu--for a short while.
    However, to my dismay I've encountered the problem that this freezing of my computer would now occur after everytime I download a new PDF (in this particular case they were Google Books scans) and then left the computer to idle.  Again, the SearchFilter.exe would allocate all of my RAM for itself and just push everything else onto the Virtual RAM, which means the SLOWEST possibly fetching you can get.  I had to uninstall as this was making my computer unusable for 15-30 minutes after each idle. Everything is back in working order without the iFilter, but I would like to know if anyone has reported such problems on x64 systems.  Obviously, I will also report the problem to Microsoft, since the search engine should certainly have the precaution to handle such memory problems.   However, it is a problem that is created by the Adobe PDF iFilter interacting with the Windows Search engine.

    Hello,
    We believe we have figured this out.  It looks like it has to do with the length of the default folder location for the Adobe iFilter.
    I was able to reproduce the issue and the following resolved it for me.  See if this resolves it for you all as well.
    Here is how to get Adobe Version 11 PDF filter to work.
     1 . If you haven’t already, run the following in SQL Server:
    Sp_fulltext_service ‘Load_os_resources’, 1
    Go
    --you might also need to run: 
    sp_fulltext_service ‘Verify_signature’,0  --This is used to validate trusted iFilters. 0 disables it. So use with caution.
    --go
    2. Stop SQL Server.  (Make sure FDHost.exe stops)
    3.  
    Uninstall the Adobe ifilter (because it defaulted to having spaces or the folder name is too long).
    4.  
    Reinstall the Adobe iFilter and when it prompts for where to install it, change it to: C:\Program Files\Adobe\PDFiFilter
    5.  Once the installation finishes, go the computer’s Environment variables. Add the following to the PATH.
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\PDFiFilter\BIN
    NOTE: it must include the BIN folder
    NOTE: If you had the OLD location that included spaces, remove it from the path environment variable.
    6. Start SQL Server
    7.  IF you had an existing Full-text index on PDFs, drop the full-text index and recreate it.
    8. You should now get results when you run sys.dm_fts_index_keywords('db','tblname')  --Note: Change db to be the actual database name and tblname to be the actual table name.
     Give this a try and see if this fixes yours. 
    Sincerely,
    Rob Beene, MSFT

  • Trouble with 3rd party VST installs for Garageband, can't find instruments

    Hi,
    I am having trouble with Audio Units for Garageband when installing 3rd party software, VSTs, loops, instruments. I have more issues with Logic Pro. I am hoping that it is the same underlying issue and that I am just missing something. I have the manuals (not great for troubleshooting). I am confused with some installs use User Library and others use the Computer Library. I do go to the mfgs sites for updates. The installs sometimes work as standalones but I don't see ALL of the components of the software in say Garageband or Logic. Mostly, I am missing the "instruments" and "loops" that I want to access within the DAW. Some examples:
    • Here is some of the software I am talking about:  East West sample libraries (Play and Native Instruments); Vienna Symphonic librarires; Sylenth1 (just last night); Sample Tank 2 and Total Workstation 2 from IK Multimedia and others.
    • In GB I see the Audio Units for Vienna, Play, Sylenth, some of the IK Multimedia but NOT any instruments when I go to the "Sound Generator" -- I seem to be missing the instruments and loops. I see less AUs in Logic Pro. Some of these are VST instruments.
    • Can I just drag-drop samples to the library folders to fix this?
    • The plug-ins do not seem to work (though Sylenth1 worked for a single sound). When there is a standalone app (as in Sample Tank), I finally got the "sounds" to be reinstalled and loaded, those sounds/samples don't show up in any DAW.
    • When and if the sounds/loops/samples show up in GB's "Instruments" section will I be able to tell that they belong to that particular software or library?
    Thanks in advance.
    John

    Found the answer myself, it was simple:
    • Select the Track
    • Show the Instrument (info area)
    • Click on Edit
    • Click on the "Sound Generator" pop up field.
    • At the bottom of the pop-up list, select from the Audio Units that you have installed. This is where you see "Sample Tank 2, Vienna Instruments..."
    • NEXT -- IMPORTANT:   CLICK ON THE PICTURE next to the Sound Generator pop-up field.The AU unit loads up, the interface pops up, you load up the instruments in this AU Unit. You do NOT see the sounds from the AU unit in the normal Apple instrument list.
    This was not intuitive but once you know it, fairly simple.
    Still, the devil is in the details -- more questions on the way.

  • 3rd Party Plug-ins for Illustrator

    EskoArtwork has a Dynamic Barcode 3rd party plug-in for Illustrator that is listed on the Adobe wesbiste for Illustrator CS6.  I puchased it and downloaded it but during the install I get a message saying it can't find a compatible Adobe Illustrator installation on my computer (I have CS6 installed).  Upon reading the information on EskoArtwork's package, it says it is only compatible with CS4, CS5 and CS5.5.  Is there a way to get this to work with CS6?  If not, I would suggest Adobe take it off their list of Plug-In's for CS6. 
    Also - if it is not compatible, does anyone know of a similar plug-in that would generate and insert bar codes into packaging designs?
    Thanks!

    You'll probably need to ask EskoArtwork about this.
    In past versions, I've been able to move plugins from the plugin directory for the old version to the new version, and often it worked.  (YMMV, it depends on changes in the SDK.) You might try creating empty directories for a CS5 version number to see if the installer will work.

  • How to setup Server 2008-2012 R2 to auto-install 3rd party updates

    I've been searching for about a month now on an easy way to install third party software updates  for individual workstations using the company's server.
    We have two, one is a 2008 server and the other is 2012 R2.  
    Is there any way I can set it up to where the updates will auto install without prompts or effecting productivity?

    Hi Rick
    there is no way you can set this up using existing built-in tools inside windows server. You would need to setup your existing infrastructure using some 3rd party tools.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Prevent shockwave player from trying to install 3rd party software?

    I am a sysadmin for a relatively small-ish enterprise (around 50-ish PCs).  We have scripts which push out shockwave player to all our systems but when a user loads a page which requires shockwave, they get a UAC prompt because the player is trying to install 3rd party software (usually Google Chrome browser).  How do I stop this from happening?  Is there a command line argument I can set (preferable method) or some other centrally-managed method for turning this off?  Thanks in advance.
    M

    I guess I am not explaining myself very well. 
    I am currently using the EXE full installer from the distribution page.  The installation works very well and I can get it to run in "silent" mode to avoid interaction with the user.  Once the installation finishes, and I load a web page which requires Shockwave player, I get prompted at that point to download/install Chrome.  That is the part I would like to know if it's possible to stop, because all our users are getting UAC prompts and it's always because Shockwave wants to run some installer after loading.  I had hoped that going to the distribution version (as opposed to the straight download from the Adobe.com home page) would resolve this but they seem to be the same version, which makes me wonder why I bothered to sign up for it in the first place.

  • Where to install 3rd party packages

    Good evening...
    i just downloaded the regex package from jakarta (jakarta-regexp-1.2) and un-zipped to some directory on my harddrive.
    but is that really what i wanted to do? where do you usually install 3rd party classes and their documentation?
    i realize for distribution my application jar will have to include the jakarta-regexp-1.2.jar; this question is more about what's the best way to set-up the development environment. just wondering if there's some standard that i should adhere to make my life easier when using other people's libraries.

    There are 2 jre's, C:\jdk1.2.2\jre is the one you want to develop with. The othere one is for windows and ie when they need to run a java program (don't worry about this one).
    To setup the development environment, make sure that javac and java are in your PATH variable. I suggest making an environment variable JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.2.2 and setting your path to PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH% . If you need an applet to use the 3rd party package, it's better to use the plug-in and point it to use the C:\jdk1.2.2\jre.
    Good luck,
    Bud

  • How to install 3rd party counters?

    Is it possible to install 3rd party counters such as NeoWorks counters
    in iWeb 06? I saw it mentioned in this forum but I am thinking it only
    works in iWeb 08, or am I wrong, and if so, how can the html code be inserted?
    I see an "insert" menu option Insert/choose....is this it? and what would I choose?
    thank you,
    todd

    Ok I just downloaded BBedit. Now before I dive into the big manual can
    you give me the quick take on where to past widget code? Do I insert and
    the front before the original index code or at the end? If at the end, is it
    just before the </head.<body><body></html>
    or after that
    I tried inserting at the very front and it appeared momentarily on the published document but was then quickly covered over by the original page.

  • 3rd Party Email Application for CF

    I know there are 3rd party email applications for CF ... Can
    anyone point me to them and/or let me know if they have worked
    better. I'm looking for more power with email (tracking, sending,
    routing, etc).
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Yeah, that might be to much. Normally, CF will directly send
    to your mailserver (usually IIS mail services) and if something
    goes wrong your only options reside in looking at the CF logs if
    you're logging mail. But I know there are some third party apps
    that do more tracking/resending then send to your mail server (and
    or better bulk mail processing). In your case you've just handled
    it more complexly by using an Exchange Server. That will be
    overkill for me plus a good amount of time learning and installing
    (not to mention price tag).

  • Bea Portal: Installing 3rd Party Portlets / cms portlets

    Hi there,
    I hope this question is not too silly, but I am new to Bea Portal
    Server. How do I properly install 3rd party portlets, e.g. the
    cmsportlets available for download on the developer page ?
    I extracted the zip files and then there is an Ant-Script where one's
    supposed to change some parameters according to ones installation. I did
    this and then I ran Ant, which actually copied the files to the portlets
    directory. This is already strange to me: can the EBCC just create new
    portlets or can it do something like "import" resources that someone
    else has developed?
    Well, so even after running ant, the portlets can be seen in EBCC, but I
    an not add them to my page.
    Any idea how to move on ?
    Thanks

    I use auto Login on Startup and Restarts.

    Stumped again ... this is a new replacement PCI audio card.

    I got a Rev B Replacement card from M-Audio. It behaved the same way as before under 10.5.6, until I ran AppleJack.
    I believe that cleared up the problems: M-Audio's v2.0.8 drivers don't install properly under 10.5.6... As I understand things, Ownership and Permissions need to be changed, and caches needed to be rebuilt. AppleJack under auto pilot did this relatively fast ... compared to how long its taken to arrive at a solution ...

    Also replaced the PRAM battery.
    Up and running fine to date with the Sonnet Tango USB/FW and Rosewill NIC PCI cards alongside.
    Perhaps AppleJack could solve other 3rd parties driver's installation woes?
