Hello Gary !

Thanks for your answer.  Now it raises a new question.  Suppose that I
have installed pdftotext, deroff and catdoc.  If I want to index a PDF
file, for instance, I must first transform it using 'pdftotext' and then
indexing this new file or directly 'indexer' carry on this goal ? ... I
mean, call automatically the 'pdftotext' parser and index the file ?.  If
so, it does the samething with deroff and catdoc ? 

If this task is not currently done by 'indexer' it would be possible to
automate this process ?

Thanks for your help ... Arturo
