One option for creation of a comprehensive index for multiple PDF files is PDF "Auto" Index Assistant-db.
The program will index 100 percent of the text content of multiple PDF files. The completed index can be used with a spreadsheet or database program.

Subject: [PDF] Indexing of bookmarks fr5om multiple PDF's is it possible?

Hi,

We have scanned thousands of files, totally more than 10 gigs, for a major utility customer. They vary in size from letter to "E" size engineering. These files are currently set up with their own bookmarks and tables of contents based on the individual manuals involved. The files are also set up on individual CD's but they can be put on one common corporate shared drive for ease of access.

The customer has now asked that we create a master index for all of these files. Is there a way to export the bookmarks into either a new PDF or perhaps an Excel or DB file so that they can be sorted and searched by bookmark/file name? Also can we create or maintain links from this index to the individual files such that the customer can either click and go to the file or they can go to a specific CD.

Operating environment- Win 2000, Acrobat 5 and 6 Thanks in advance for your help.
