Additional info:
I read a discussion about this issue here:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231936

But, does the patch really works?

I join a sample pdf file.

Hello,
the upstream (in the external tracker) bug claims the issue to be fixed in KDE 4.7.3 with strigi 0.7.7. What versions did you test, please? Is the bug still present?
There are some reports on the upstream Bugzilla that the bug wasn't fixed entirely. If you still do experience the problems, please let us and upstream know.
Thank you.

Yes, I updated strigi to version 0.7.7 and now pdf files are indexed. I forgot to update my info here, sorry. You can close this bug.
