Recoll - indexing Microsoft Office Files ( DOC PPT and XLS )

Well, the recoll has finished indexing, but no Microsoft Office (or OpenOffice.org) files was found - I think something must be wrong, because there were thousands of Microsoft Office files inside my PC.

This URL mention that we need to install the appropriate helpers :
So I install the xpdf, antiword, and catdoc utilities, and do update index.... Let's see what happen next after it finished indexing :) - Will Recoll be able to find any Microsoft Office's file ?

Several minutes later the indexing was finished, and I tried to search "ipv6", and it found a lot of ipv6 related documents ! Much quicker and more result compared to Beagle.
