Well, parse_doc.pl can't exactly choke if it doesn't even run. You'd
need to make sure you installed the script where you tell htdig you
put it, and make sure it's executable.
When you said it worked after implementing the fix to max_doc_size, as
David suggested, I assume you mean it now works with acroread. If you
find that the results with acroread are unsatisfactory (which many of
us have), you may want to switch to doc2html, in the contrib section
of the htdig.org web site. It's now the PDF converter of choice for
htdig.
