Ciao,
Here is what I use:
external_parsers: \
application/pdf->text/html ${scripts_dir}/doc2html.pl \
application/rtf->text/html ${scripts_dir}/doc2html.pl \
application/msword->text/html ${scripts_dir}/doc2html.pl
where scripts_dir is previously set to be pointing to a directory where I
put the doc2html script (and related). I use
Then, in doc2html.pl I put:
my $CATDOC = '/usr/bin/catdoc';
my $PDF2HTML = '/opt/htdig/web/scripts/pdf2html.pl';
Of course change the locations. The doc2html should be the wrapper script.
Hope this helps. Give a look also at the FAQs:

The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash,
it displays a dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.
