I have uploaded several pdf files and they were converted to text by xpdf as I can see the yes and click on it.</p> <p>My problem is I can't seem to create a search that finds any of the articles. I try small words, long words, multiple words, I go into advanced search and select attachments and inline files, I select all categories by the all button and by highlighting all.</p> <p>Search works on articles, but I can't seem to get it work reliably on attachments. Any hints? </p> http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/topic/xpdf-integration#post-303 Tue, 02 Dec 2008 16:22:45 +0000 onesign 303@http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/ <p>It runs when you add/update file. No need to wait. Files added before enabling xpdf have never been indexed. You have to update it. </p> http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/topic/xpdf-integration#post-302 Fri, 28 Nov 2008 21:15:57 +0000 cnielsen 302@http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/ <p>ahh now i see how it work's :-) sry it's nothing of my daily business...<br /> and how long do i have to wait till the mysql fulltext index run's? every hour or when? </p> http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/topic/xpdf-integration#post-301 Fri, 28 Nov 2008 20:17:08 +0000 onesign 301@http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/ <p>Text from pdf fle will be extracted to the database, it wil be indexed by MySQL fulltext index.<br /> Text extracted when you add file.<br /> There is a "Text" field in files listing if extraction successful then you can able to see extracted text. </p> http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/topic/xpdf-integration#post-300 Fri, 28 Nov 2008 15:07:05 +0000 cnielsen 300@http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/ <p>so when i upload a new pdf file, kbp will extract the pdf to txt and then i'll have two files in my kb_file folder, one called test.pdf and one called test.txt, is this correct? and how long do i have to wait for indexing the new files? </p> http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/topic/xpdf-integration#post-299 Thu, 27 Nov 2008 18:50:02 +0000 onesign 299@http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/ <p>This tool does not search in files, it extract index raw text from pdf files and KBP index such files.<br /> So search will be possible for new uploaded files (after xpdx installation).<br /> In next KBPublisher release it will be possible to reindex existing files.</p> <p>Make tests with php and real path.<br /> php system('/usr/path_to_xpdf/pdftotext -raw file_read.pdf file_write.txt', $return);</p> <p>try to set with $file_conf['extract_tool']['pdf'] = ''; </p> http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/topic/xpdf-integration#post-298 Thu, 27 Nov 2008 15:26:48 +0000 cnielsen 298@http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/ <p>sry for the misunderstanding - no it doesnt work for me in my kbpublisher-installation. i can convert pdf's to txt's on the command prompt, but i can not search in pdf documents attached to kb-articles. </p> http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/topic/xpdf-integration#post-297 Wed, 26 Nov 2008 15:44:20 +0000 onesign 297@http://www.kbpublisher.com/forums/ <p>Sorry, what is the question?

The command "pdftotext -raw example.pdf example.txt" works fine. Here's my config.inc.php:</p> <p>&lt;?php<br /> $win = (substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3) == "WIN");</p> <p>// change this if you install xpdf to other directory<br /> $file_conf['extract_tool']['pdf'] = ($win) ? APP_EXTRA_MODULE_DIR . 'file_extractors/xpdf/win/'<br /> : '/usr/local/groundwork/apache2/htdocs/kb/admin/extra/file_extractors/xpdf/win/';<br /> ?&gt;</p> <p>Have someone made this running in his environment?<br /> Thank's! </p>
