Greetings Abbie,
If you look a bit earlier on in the output, does it say something like=20
"! UNABLE to convert" or
"!! Unable to execute pdftotext at /.../pdf2html.pl line 34."?
If it says the first, you'll have to edit your file=20
/opt/www/htdig/bin/doc2html/doc2html.pl -- line 77 should be=20
something like
my $PDF2HTML =3D '/.../pdf2html.pl'; # full pathname of pdf2html/pl=20
script
where '/.../pdf2html.pl' is the path to your pdf2html.pl script. =20
(Type 'which pdf2html.pl' to find it.)
If it says the second, you'll have to edit your pdf2html.pl file. =20
At about line 20, should be the line
my $PDFTOTEXT =3D "/usr/bin/pdftotext";
(Replace the path with your own path, from 'which pdftotext'.)
Regarding highlighting words, ht://Dig *does* highlight the words in=20
the excerpt if they are there. If your excerpt is too small to=20
contain the search terms, you can increase the max_head_length =20
attribute. In the standard rundig it is 10,000 bytes. If your =20
max_head_length is longer than your document length and you are=20
still not getting the words highlighted, let us know.
Out of interest, how did you overcome your earlier problem of ht://Dig=20
not finding the documents at all?
Cheers,
Lachlan
