Re: [htdig] pdf parser

This is a simple error message produced by pdf2html.pl, and has nothing =
to do with fonts.  The error means that the file given by

my $PDFTOTEXT =3D "/usr/local/bin/pdftotext";=20

cannot be executed.  This may be because /usr/local/bin/pdftotext does =
not exist, or because it is not executable by the user running htdig.

  Thank you for the prompt reply. I now have another error when I run =
rundig:

    9:9:2:http://www.volvoclub.org.uk/tow_bar_recall.pdf: ! UNABLE to =

34.
     size =3D 418109

  One file I have not changed is sample-xpdfrc, everything is still =
commented out. I don't know where the fonts are installed on our RaQ550 =
server. Is this likely to be the cause of this new error message?

      I changed it but still get the same errors. I  commented out lines =
like <my $WP2HTML =3D  '  ' ; > because I only want to use the pdf =
parser and it is my understanding that they are not needed. Am I wrong?

        I am trying to set up an external parser with htdig to index pdf =
files on our web site. I installed the files as per the xpdf INSTALL =
file.

        For doc2html.pl I only needed pdf search so the only variable is =

        my $PDF2HTML =3D '/home/sites/www.volvoclub.org.uk/web/cgi-bin';

        The only changes I made to pdf2html.pl were:=20
        my $PDFTOTEXT =3D "/usr/local/bin/pdftotext";=20
        my $PDFINFO =3D "/usr/local/bin/pdfinfo";

        In htdig.conf I put:=20
        external_parsers: application/pdf->text/html =
/home/sites/www.volvoclub.org.uk/web/cgi-bin/htdig/pdf/doc2html.pl

         Ran rundig, but got the following output:
