actually, it isn't possible to define a tokenizer on a string field, therefore you should use custom TextField.
To enable the wildcards: 1. trailing wildcard prepa* should work off the shelf 2. leading wildcard *test can be enabled with the following filter (with our own settings, entire filter has been dropped due to caution below): <!-- add this after you tokenizers --> <filter class="solr.ReversedWildcardFilterFactory" withOriginal="true" maxPosAsterisk="3" maxPosQuestion="2" maxFractionAsterisk="0.33"/> caution: this may potentially double your index in absolute count of tokens, but with solr4's compression it can be acceptable. The reason to reverse the tokens for a leading wildcard search is that without this solr would need to scan the entire dictionary of terms in order to find suffix matches. And with reversing you need to scan only the suffix's subset of reversed tokens.
