Storing text documents in tables in SQL Server 2005
Check the full text index properties and see if the document has been added to the index or not. It can take some time for the data to be added to the index. Documents are not added to the index at the same time that they are added to the table.

Questions about a SQL database with hourly transaction log backups
No transaction logs are not cumulative. You have to keep each log backup taken between the full backups. It is actually recommended to keep a couple of cycles worth of log files. Your cycle is daily, so I would recommend keeping 2-3 days worth of log file backups.
