Hi there,

Thanks for your reply,

 We are using an Adobe PDF iFilter(AcroRdIF.dll) for search indexing to do the PDF content text search in appropriate folder's PDF document. So this dll available while installing the Adobe reader 11. but now its stopped supporting and in the latest version of Adobe reader installation we could not find this dll available in the installation folder after install done and appropriate registry key also not entered in the registry. 

 

So is there any alternate appropriate to achieve the content search indexing in the latest version of adobe...?

Below are the registry details once the Adobe reader 11 installed

So what is your question? Acrobat XI is EOL now for a small eternity.
