My binary files are all PDFs, so the text is extracted with PdfBox toolkit and the full text becomes keyword searchable. All done using the default configuration, except I extended nt:resource to add a few attributes.
The mimeType attribute will be application/octet-stream. Perhaps there is no plug-in that knows how to extract text from your binary files?

If so, then something's not working for me. Can you recommend some troubleshooting tips? How can I determine whether the binaries are being indexed? Note, I'm doing a full text search and it DOES hit other node properties, etc.
