Jim -

I've been looking at it for Apple Corps and PlanoMUG too.

And what I've found is there are a lot of search engines on the market that index PDF files.

With the Superbowl getting ready to get underway - I do not have time to delve into the many possibilities open to you (and I); but I'll happily spell it out later or tomorrow depending on the out come of the game and my state -of -mind...

=0)

till later.

Our MUG has managed to store just about all of its monthly newsletters on our club website, one of our more impressive accomplishments given that the first issue was produced in January of 1988.

One thing which limits the usefulness of retaining all those issues on our server is the lack of any Index of the articles contained in each issue.

A manual attempt to do this was completed for one year's issues, but was never kept up. Even that attempt was more of a Table of Contents than an Index, in the sense that it simply listed for each Month the titles of the major articles contained in each issue.

These newsletters are retained in PDF format.

I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how one might be able to develop an Index for all this material, preferably something that would be accessible online. The idea would be that someone could key in a search term and get back a listing of all the articles that contain that search term and the month and year of the issue in which that article appears.

Any suggestions or pointers to other sites would be appreciated.
