Are you converting the PDF content to HTML and feeding that into htdig? If so, I would expect htdig to pick up the title without any extra effort on your part. However this assumes that the output of your parser is valid HTML. > however, whenever htdig runs it's search results are typically shown as > filename.pdf as the title on the main link. > > *0613_AIR_DOM_00_028_00.pdf<http://10.35.11.22/PagePDFs/Newsprint_Products/Lo_Res/2005/06_13_05/AIR/0613_AIR_DOM_00_028_00.pdf> > *[image: *][image: *][image: *][image: *] is an example. > > When the title for that document the parser outputs isn't the filename.

If you have not already done so, you might also want to take a look at htdig's external_parser support. http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#external_parsers This would probably allow you more control over the manner in which htdig indexes your documents.
