Thanks.

I am using the getText(PDDocument) method of the PDFTextStripper. I will try
the other suggestion.

If you are using

If, however, you are using

teText
(org.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument,%20java.io.Writer) to go via a temporary file, you will not need so much RAM, but you need to use http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/api/org/apache/lucene/document/Fiel
d.html
#Field(java.lang.String,%20java.io.Reader) to construct your Lucene field (rather than http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/api/org/apache/lucene/document/Fiel d.html #Field(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20org.apache.lucene.docum

Subject: Out of memory error

I am indexing different document formats with lucene 1.9. One of the pdf file I am indexing is 300MG. Whenever the index writer hits that file it stops the indexing with "Out of Memory" exception. I am using the pdf box library to index. I have set the following merge factors in my

code.

writer.setMergeFactor(1000);
writer.setMaxMergeDocs(9999999);
writer.setMaxBufferedDocs(1000);
writer.setMaxFieldLength(Integer.MAX_VALUE);

I would like any help and suggestions.

thanks,
suba suresh.
