I cannot reproduce this with any PDFs in my library. And unfortunately the error doesn't capture exactly where the error is. Are all the failures for PDFs? Do they have DRM?

Are you running the release version, 1.5.10? There was another release earlier in the year that could use OCR for PDFs. If you are using that, I won't be able to help.

Have you tried converting the PDF to another format? If that doesn't work, I don't think this plugin will work. It uses some of the function that a conversion does to get the text from the PDF and then search that.

If it does convert, I suspect I will only be able to help with a copy of the book. If it is legal to do so, you can post it here. Or, if it is somewhere I can legally download it, please post the link. Otherwise, you can upload it somewhere and send a PM with a link to down it.
