Data Control - PDF file with US SSN or Banking information.

I set up few Data control policy for Banking information, US SSN , etc. The policy is working fine. Whenever users email any document with SSN or Banking information I do get notification. However if user convert a document to pdf file which has Banking or SSN , the policy doesn’’’’t recognize the file. I couldn’’’’t find any option for file type.

Any suggestions ?

Na , it doesn’’’’t scan Pdf file with “'Bank routing numbers with qualifying terms'” policy.
I am not excluding any file ( from Rule 5)
Here is the logs
A data control policy was infringed on machine SOPHOS-TEST by logged on user XXX\YYYY.
An "allow file transfer" action was taken.

If I turn on the policy for “'Microsoft Office documents'” it will scan the PDF file
