Catdoc only outputs plain text, so that even if it did extract the document properties it would be no simple matter to make use of them.
Wp2html only extracts the properties from Wordperfect documents. I could request the author to enhance it to extract Word document properties also, pointing out that this might lead to increased sales to the htdig user community. However, a number of other utilities for converting Word documents have been mentioned on this list, do any of them already do this? -- David Adams Computing Services Southampton University ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ramzi Abdallah" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, October 23, 2002 8:12 AM Subject: [htdig] MS word meta tags > > Hi all, > > Is it possible to configure htdig to do meta tag search instead of full text > search on MS word 2000 documents?
