ColdFusion has a search solution called Verity which allows you search PDF documents... it comes built in with CF.

Hello All, I was wondering if it was possible, for ColdFusion to scan a subdirectory of PDF files, read in each file, and then perform a Full-Text search - bringing back a list of files containing the search criteria? I know ColdFusion has some type of built-in PDF capabilities, but I think that is to just create PDF files correct? I suppose, for anything more elaborate, a COM Object would have to be created within the ColdFusion process, launching an instance of the PDF Reader (assuming it's installed on the Web Server), and then have the Reader communicate back with the ColdFusion Server... Can anybody point me in the right direction, as how to accomplish something like this? Thanks in advance, for any advice you can throw my way. Mike
