Whe htdig GETs a document which requires an external parser,
it writes it to a temporary file, passes the name of the temporary file
(plus the URL and MIME-type) to the external parser and waits for it to
return. I don't see that it would help having the external parser on a
different machine.
For the best, use the doc2html.pl and pdf2html.pl scripts
together with pdftotext and pdfinfo from version 1.0 of xpdf.

Subject: [htdig] PDF issues
Hello all,
I am new to this board. I am having issues indexing pdf’s.
I have one machine doing the digging and then scping the db files up to my
external web server. Does the external parser (pdftotext) have to be on the
same machine too? Also which
external parser is the best?
Thanks in advance
Ryan
