Re: Modern PDF IFilter for IIS?

It appears as though Adobe no longer supplies an IFilter for MS

"Starting with Acrobat and Reader 7.0.5, iFilter functionality is now
bundled within the Acrobat and Reader products"

Apparently, the IFilter is not easy to locate as a self-contained
package on Acrobat installation discs (I have Acro Professional 8). As
far as I understand my research, you're supposed to install Acrobat on
the computer in order to get the IFilter. I don't think that makes any
sense for a server. Nobody's going to use Acrobat as such on my
server, so I really don't want to install it.

Is there a workaround somewhere? To get the latest PDF IFilter on the
web server with minimum of software installation? I've looked at
FoxIT's PDF IFilter, but it has a hefty price tag for servers, and
they don't state what PDF version it's supporting.

Also, would this link be of any help?
