Search PDF files

Im a newbie at this and I am following the instructions per documentation but there is one part that I am not clear on
Quote:
3.3. File types wich can be indexed PhpDig indexes HTML and text files by itself.
PhpDig could index PDF, MS-Word and MS-Excel files if you install external binaries on the spidering machines to this purpose. PhpDig could index PDF, MS-Word and MS-Excel files if you install external binaries on the spidering machines to this purpose.
I dont understand the "PhpDig could index PDF, MS-Word and MS-Excel files if you install external binaries on the spidering machines to this purpose."

I have access of my files when I FTP to a directory that my webhost gives me, but as for adding external binaries, I am not sure.

All my pdf files are in a specific directory buy how does somebody search a particular pdf file?

If anyone can give me clarification or instructions on how to do this, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.
