Do google inex/crawl adobe reader files?

Hi

Do google and other SE crawl and index adobe reader files so that if i copy from a adobe reader file and make a html page it will count as duplicate? Or will both files count as original as it is differences in format?

 

Yes, Google does indexes and ranks files in Adobe Reader(pdf format). And yes, if you copy the content from any kind of sources that are available/published online, and publish/make it available online, it will be considered as Duplicate.

 

Thanks for answer, even though the files are not found in google by searching for their url adress?

 

Thanks for fast reply, this you say even though the files are not found by searching for their url adress in google?

 

yes now google have system of indexing flash content as well

 

You can find any type of files on google by using this command, filetype:
For example if you want to search for health pdf files then do like this "health filetypedf". Google will generate all health related .pdf files with this.

 

yes, it read and understand PDF file, the link from it treat as backlink too
