title: What is in average the text percentage of a pdf/word document?
body: <p>The thing is I have more than <code>1TB</code> of documents that needs to be indexed with solr, most of this amount is pdf/word, I would say <code>80%</code> which turns to be <code>800GB</code> of data that needs to be indexed but I do believe that I don't need a disc with <code>800GB</code> to store the index. So, my question is, what is in average the text percentage of a pdf/word document? With that information I can estimate the disk size.</p>
