Title of PDF
Is there a way to store the title of a PDF in a Lucene collection for
retrieval when listing search results.
Thanks

Don,
I think you misunderstood Otis. You will need to use some sort of parser
(i.e. pdfbox, xpdf) to get the title text from the PDF (I assume you are
indexing the documents, so you have this already). Then you create a
"title" field in your index and store the text of the title in there (so
that you can return it with the results). That is independent of what you
do with the rest of the PDF document.

It can't be that simple because the field will contain the whole PDF and
not just the title. And for PDFs that are 3 or 4 megs, it is really not
reasonable to store the who PDF in the collection just to get the title.

Don,
Sure, just make sure you pick the Field that stores the original text
(e.g. Keyword or Text, NOT UnStored :)). It does not matter that the
source of the data is (PDF or HTML or Java String), as long as you use
the appropriate Field method. Also, don't pass a Reader, as that won't
save your original text.
