RE: [Zope] index of pdf docs / doc mgmt

That won't work; ZpdfDocument is for _creating_ PDFs... Use "Document Library" instead. It uses the pdf2text program on a unix box (installed with Xpdf package) to index full-text of the PDF contents. We use it to index vendor documentation and Visio diagrams output in PDF format; I'm sure this would work for you, one way or another. http://www.zope.org/Members/Kaivo/DocumentLibrary If nothing else, you could use the PDF file extraction code within DocumentLibrary in your own solution...

HTTP upload - filesize limit
by Gitte Wange 13 Aug '01

13 Aug '01

Hello, I have created a product in Zope which is based on external files. The problem is that everything works okay if I upload a file with a filesize of 10 MB. But it fails if I upload a file with a filesize of 18 MB. When I worked with PHP there was a limit in the php.ini file where you set the maximum size of an uploaded file. Does the same work for python/Zope or is it something else that is wrong ?
