I haven't added support for searching through PDF text content. In some PDF files, the text is represented as actual text, but in other PDFs, the page is just an image, and I can't extract text from an image (without performing OCR which I don't plan on supporting anytime soon). The other issue is that searching through the text of every PDF in the library can be incredibly slow. It involves having to open every single file in the library, search through every page of the file, then close the file and release all the resources. If you have thousands of PDFs, it could take a very long time to open every file and search through the contents. Having said that, I am going to look into supporting this when time allows.
