Hi All,
  I need a little help and direction with a project.  I’ve got 50+ .pdf 
‘journals.’  Each journal has 3 to 5 articles in it.  
  We want to make the journal’s text searchable, and to be able to send 
(download) just the related article(s) instead of the whole journal.
  We’re running CF8 and MySql on windows and we own the journals, so there 
aren’t any copyright issues.

Question 1 – Which search engine – Verity or Google?  
  We already use Verity on our site, but Google is pretty cool and powerful.

Question 2 – Where to store the pdf’s – in a directory or in MySql?  
  I’ve gathered from other people’s posts that there are issues with 
MySql’s BLOB data type.  I don’t know exactly what those issues are - would 
I run into them storing pdf’s in MySql?

Question 3 – pdf files – Should I save each article as a separate file (or 
record) or should I leave the articles in the journal and let CFPDF pull the 
particular article out?

If you’ve had a similar project, what did you do and why?  

Thanks!!
