Try this.
<cfcollection
action="create"
collection="pdf_files"
path="[fully_qualified_path]">
<cfindex
action="refresh" key="[file path]"
urlpath="[web directory mapping i.e. 'http://www.mysite.com/pdf/ ]"
extensions=".pdf" recurse="Yes/No" >
Recurse will search subdirectories.
Then put this in your search form page.
<form action="search.cfm" method="post">
Search <input type="text" name="criteria" size="20">
<input type="submit" value="Search!">
</form>
Then search.cfm
<cfsearch collection="pdf_files" criteria="#form.criteria#" name="search"
type="simple">
<table>
<cfoutput query="search">
<tr>
<td>Document </td>
<td><a href="#URL#">#Key#</a></td>
<td>Score</td><td>#NumberFormat(Score,"9999")#%</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>#Summary#</td></tr>
<tr><td> </td></tr>
</cfoutput>
</table>

Subject: Any good way to index/search pdf docs via CF
I've got about 1500 pdf documents that need to be indexed so as to be
searchable via a web search form. Can you/how do you index these things so
as to do a search on them? Can you create a Verity collection out of them
and then search the Verity collection?
Thanks for any pointers.
