I am trying to get PDF files working.  I downloaded the doc2html files and added the external parser statement to the htdig.conf file. When I run "rundig" I get a lot of UNABLE to convert messages.  Also htnotify has always aborted (even before attempting to index pdf files).   Here is some of the output from rundig: !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert !       UNABLE to convert /usr/bin/rundig: line 37:  5354 Segmentation fault      $BINDIR/htpurge $opts $alt /usr/bin/rundig: line 48:  5355 Aborted                 $BINDIR/htnotify $opts /usr/bin/rundig: line 81:  5362 Segmentation fault      /usr/bin/htfuzzy $verbose metaphone /usr/bin/rundig: line 82:  5363 Segmentation fault      /usr/bin/htfuzzy $verbose soundex   I'll attach my htdig.conf file, I didn't modify the doc2html.cfg file.   Any advice or documentation you can refer me to would be greatly appreciated.   Thanks,   Brent Sherman Circuit Executive's Office Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals 56 Forsyth St. NW, Atlanta, GA 30303-2205 404/335-6683, Fax 404/335-6540
