Google Desktop and PDF Files

[RJ Emery]

Given Google Desktop Search, which produces an index of files on one's computer, is it intelligent enough to read PDF files and produce an index of what is inside of them?

(A disadantage of Google Desktop is an incremental update cannot be made should their be a change in a file's location or a change in its name. In that event, GDS must be uninstalled, re-installed, and one's system re-indexed. I hope Google's bright engineers are working to make the product more robust.)
