I'm developing a site that's entire function is defined by the documents it provides. The documents are provided to the user both through embedding in the page (using the Google Drive Viewer) as well as through download links.My question is, if I have the plaintext for each of these documents (ranging from PDFs to MS Office files), is there a good way to make this content visible to the search engine spiders?I thought of including the entire doc file content in the alt attribute, but given many of these documents are over 100 pages, I would assume that will break something somewhere. Also thought about setting the download and href src to the plaintext then use JS to change the link destination onload, but I would assume search engines will detect and not look fondly on that.Is there a good, standard practice for handling something like this or am I basically sol for getting this content noticed?
Is there a good way to include plain text versions of embedded documents for search engines to find?
