This step is best combined with Content Augmentation and PDF OCR to create the best searching experience for documents. For more information, see Indexing Common Formats.

Overview

The content-conversion step is used to convert incoming content to HTML. For supported document formats, incoming documents are split into individual pages, each represented as a separate HTML document.

The converted content is used to set the body attribute.

Display Support refers to how the documents are displayed to the user. To display all office formats to the user with full display support, the PDF Conversion step can be inserted before this step. See Indexing Common Formats for a full guide.
