content type filter for PDF

description

Excellent job Leonid. I just installed this in my enterprise and it works like a charm.
One bug I noticed, kindly see if you can fix this:
 
The "content type" filter for PDF on the right zone search facet only displays "application/PDF" content type if the search results have PDFs hosted on sharepoint sites only. It will NOT show (doesn't work) for PDFs hosted on file shares. FYI: We have a file share crawler and there doesn't seem to be any issue with the Acrobat Ifilter installation as we can search/within for PDFs on sharepoint as well as file shares.
 
Thanks,
Harman

Harman, this behaviour is based on ContentType property extracted by the MOSS crawler. You can find out the exact value and assign it in the Mappings

Do you know where/how I can find that value from within the Crawler log?

FYI: as a workaround, I modified the XML to use the FileExtension property instead of ContentType. But I'd eventually like to use ContentType.

Thanks!
