Indexing only works on PDFs consisting of text (that you can select or copy for example), these are often rather small PDF files (a few hundred kB even for longer texts).
It won't work on PDFs that contain pages of scanned text (usually relatively large files where you cannot select or copy text).
Did Index Creator help you save time and/or money?
If so, why not show your support? Even small donations will help to keep this service free for all. Thank you!
