Hi Graeme, 

I agree. Your 'partition pruning' method solves my
primary issue, e.g. identifying which pdf file(s)
might be relevant in a documentation search. 

My current approach is:
Use Oracle Text to search a pdf set. Once I have the
list of matching files, I can select one (up to
twenty) to open, and re-search on the top priority
opened file in acrobat (v6.0.x up). The hyper-linked
result list simulates tahiti search without being
on-line (internet) and without html.

I'm pretty sure I know how to simply automate the
above steps  without webification and on windoze/xnix.
I will post the results later, if/when successful. 

Thanks again.

Regards,

Mike Thomas
