In Acrobat: Choose Edit > Search > Select Indexes to list the currently available indexes and to add or delete indexes... In the dialog, click "Info..." to see where the physical index files live (if you don't know yet that is) and you can delete those index files. If you need to un-associate multiple files from the index, I'm not sure that you can do that in a batch process. I haven't used the index feature in awhile.

Does anyone know how to remove an index from a file that has had an index associated with it? We have a project in which we built an index and associated all the files with it, but the search didn't work. The person who did the index then deleted the old index file and rebuilt a new one, which didn't work. We restored the old (deleted) index file to the server and then tried to purge and rebuild it. No luck. We don't know how to UN-associate the screwed-up indexes now to try to do a clean build of a new index. Any index we try to build now will not find words that we know are in the files. Other than restoring our files from backups before the indexing was done and starting all over, is there any way to get rid of an index and start anew after files have had an index associated with them? We need to catalog them for a CD-ROM project, and hope not to lose a couple of days' work to redo them. To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdf.html
