I just installed the iFilter on a Windows 2003, 64-bit machine with MOSS 2007. I did a full crawl and it seems to have successfully indexed all but the eight largest of my PDF files. Looking through the file sizes, it indexed one that was 10 MB, but not the ones that were over 19 MB. Is there some place in the iFilter that you must set the maximum file size, or is this a SharePoint setting?

Foxit PDF IFilter didn't set the maximum file size.

Google for the registry key maxgrowfactor and maxdownloadsize; these are Moos settings.

IFilter looking into this issue, and find the main reason:

This is caused by the default set of maximum document size in MOSS, the default size is 16MB.

Could you help to try the following steps to chang the maximum document size.

You need to add the key for MAXDOWNLOADSIZE for the MOSS search.

1. run Regedit.exe.
Start-> run->type "regedit", click"ok".
2. Locate the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\12.0\Search\Global\Gathering Manager
3. Click "edit"->new->DWORD Value, and named it "maxdownloadsize"
4. Double-click, choose"Decimal"and type the Value data you want
5. Restart the server .start->run, type"cmd"->type "iisreset"
6. Start a full crawl before search.
