Looking for search engine of pdf files
 

Dear All,

I am looking for an application to index the pdf files of a selected
directory (only; not of the entire disk) in order to allow searches in
the whole set of pdf files indexed. Of course, I could use Google
Desktop, but I am looking for something much lighter. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

ht://dig will do that but it is a web based search tool.

Thanks, Thomas. I have just realized that Google Desktop can be
configured to index only the selected directories. In addition, it can
be configured to index only pdf files.
