Are you sure that the PDF contains content that can be indexed? In some cases a PDF is just a wrapper around an image, in which case there would be no text to index. I believe that the "Deleted, no excerpt" message implies that nothing of interest was left from the document after processing. Also, if your PDF's are large, make sure that max_doc_size is set appropriately. If the value of this attribute is too small, the PDF will be truncated and not parsed correctly. See the following for more on this attribute. http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#max_doc_size > whereas the DOC appears to be indexed OK, I just can't find it with any > search words at all. This "Word" doc (.doc) was created with OpenOffice > 1.0, I wonder if the MIME type is wrong? Not sure on this one. My guess is that you would see some sort of message indicating a problem if the MIME type was unrecognized. If you increase the number of '-v's you pass rundig you should get to a point where you can see the actual words that htdig is indexing. If you see the words you are interested in being indexed but still can't find them in the database, then it might be necessary to look elsewhere for the problem.
