Re: Looking For PDF Search Program
I also hunted for an email address to pose the question, but still came up blank.
Could you point me in the right direction for either. I don't want to install such a large package if it doesn't suit my needs.
Cheers, Robert.

Re: Looking For PDF Search Program
My port of ht://Dig to VMS can search PDFs. It uses pdftotext and pdfinfo from the xpdf package.
See http://www.pdv-systeme.de/users/martinv/htdig/

Re: Looking For PDF Search Program
One question though; can HTDig search the PDF files without extracting the data?
If not, then it would be too cumbersome to use in my application.
Any other suggestions you can give to allow me to search a bunch of PDF files quickly would be very much appreciated.
Cheers, Robert.

Re: Looking For PDF Search Program
sorry, but no. I know of no utility that searches PDF files "natively" on VMS, i.e. without extracting the text.

But as you are a subscriber of the Wasd mailing list, you already know that :-)

Re: Looking For PDF Search Program
"Swish-e can internally only parse HTML, XML and TXT (text) files by default"
Same philosophy as ht://Dig.

Re: Looking For PDF Search Program
And when you search in the Vms documentation at
http://pi-net.dyndns.org/cgiplus-bin/search
you find sometimes Pdf documents.
So it works
:-)
