Metadata retrieval for PDFs fails/does not terminate

pjgoodall
2.0B3 I have not had a successful retrieval of metadata for a pdf for some days now. I end up cancelling the operation after some minutes. The progress bar does not progress at all. This did work very well in earlier beta.

    Upgrade to 2.0b4.

    The retrieval now occurs, thanks...

    Is there a way in 2.0b4 to get a pdf recognised as a pdf, short of opening in a browser plugin (which I don't use)? Drag and drop or 'store copy of file' both result in unindexed, apparently typeless, items.

    Thanks for the pointer Dan.
