 ### Full-Text Cache
 
 Zotero creates an index to allow the full text contents of PDF and plain-text attachments in your library to be searched with Quick Search ("Everything" option) and Advanced Search (via "Attachment Content").
 
-**Note:** At this time, only PDF full text content (and plain text files) can be indexed by Zotero. Other document types (e.g., .docx, .odt, .epub) cannot be indexed by Zotero.

 This section includes these options to manage your full-text index:
 
 -   **Rebuild Index…:** Re-create the full-text index for all items from scratch. This option may be helpful if you use OCR text recognition on a large number of attachment files or you find that searching using "Everything" or "Attachment Content" does not return the correct results.
-    -   Before using this option, verify that the item has searchable text and that the text is properly stored in the PDF (e.g., try to copy text out of the document and ensure that it is high quality).
-    -   You can re-index individual PDF files in your library by right-clicking on the PDF attachment item in your library and choosing "Reindex Item".

     -   If you are still having issues after re-indexing an item, please ask a question on the [Zotero Forums](/forum).
 -   **Clear Index…:** Delete the full-text index. Use this option if you intend to disable full-text indexing and wish to reduce the size of your Zotero database (note that the full-text index typically occupies a relatively small amount of storage space on your computer).
--   **Maximum characters to index per file:** The number of characters to index in PDF and plain-text attachments (default: 500,000, approximately 100,000 words or 180–200 pages of content). Set this value to 0 to disable full-text indexing.

 It is possible to run complex Boolean searches by using multiple Saved Searches. For example, to run the search `(a OR b) AND (c OR d)`, first make a Saved Search called "Condition1" for `(a OR b)`, then make a Saved Search called "Condition2" for `(c OR d)`. Finally, run a third Advanced Search and search for `"Collection" "is" "Condition1" AND "Collection" "is" "Condition2"`.

You can remove indexed text with the "Clear Index…" button or re-create the index from scratch using the "Rebuild Index…" button.

 If an item isn't being indexed (e.g., if it is not showing up in an 'Everything' Quick Search), verify that the item has searchable text and that the text is properly stored in the PDF (e.g., try to copy text out of the document and ensure that it is high quality). If the PDF has valid text, rebuild the item's index by right-clicking on it and choosing "Reindex Item". If you are still having issues, please ask a question on the [Zotero forums](/forum).
