For pdf, the only 2 solutions I found are:
- a comment on php.net http://www.php.net/manual/fr/ref.pdf.php#56492,
it seems a very basic script but at least could work at first
- Xpdf seems to support most plateform for the command line
I'll have a look later this year once I start the project and have
time to focus on it.

2. For the categories, yes I have seen the category pull-down and it
is already good to narrow the search but this is not exactly what I
was trying to explain:
- What I am looking for is the best way to list results by category to
be able to list in an area of the page the result for articles and
another area results for blogs and so on... But I guess that modifying
the result view should be enough because I believe that I can access
the category of each result therefore I should be able to sort them
and separate the view for each category results. I haven't try yet but
I will later probably.

Btw, I was trying to put the list of categories as multiple to select
more than one category at a time but it does not seems to work, is it?

I will try also to send you a patch later to display the list of
category in checkbox (when you do not have too  much), it is always
easier to multiple check checkbox rather than select element. It
should be configurable of course through the app.yml or something like
this.
