I only use doc2html to index pdf-files, don't have any other files that
I'm interested in indexing.

First I run a simple "htdig -v -a -i"... Then I get the usual output
while indexing. For one pdf-file that is:

207:209:7:http://www.citu.lu.se/cituverkstad/allmant/mjukvara/manualer/flash4_SW.pdf:  
 size = 2660517

That parts seems fine...

then I run "htmerge -vvv -a" and get a lot of output... for th pdf-file
it is:

202/http://www.citu.lu.se/cituverkstad/allmant/mjukvara/illustrator.htm
Deleted, no excerpt: 
209/http://www.citu.lu.se/cituverkstad/allmant/mjukvara/manualer/flash4_SW.pdf

No, I haven't tried using logfiles but when I run doc2html manually on
the pdf-file above I get a _large_ html-file that is totally valid html.

Yes...

Thanx,
