I'm hoping someone will be able to come up with a PDF manager module. I have a genealogy site with hundreds of PDF pages of scanned documents. I'm starting to port a lot of custom modules I wrote for Nuke and don't have time to refit everything for XOOPS. (PS, Nuke is dying on my server, don't know why, tired of fixing it; moved to XOOPS and LOVE IT!)

I could laboriously drag each PDF document back into Photoshop and extract JPG's for each page and load them into MyAlbum-p (which I LOVE), but we're talking scores of man-hours. P on that.

What I'd like to see is a manager like MyAlbum-p where I could fling the document into, add a comment, maybe even have a thumbnail of the first graphic it finds or even the PDF logo. Doesn't matter. I've got too many "too-important" documents to horse around with. Genealogists who use my site to research allied families keep asking for some way to be able to search through a catalog of the PDF's. I'd love to accommodate them by writing something, but I'm way too busy writing my own genealogy module to take on a side project before my nuke installation finally craps its pants the last time.

Any suggestions or notions would be gratefully entertained.

This might be a start: https://xoops.org/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=24&lid=411

At least you can leave them as PDF's

Cheers! I'm getting familiar with XOOPS and the site here a bit a time. Appreciate the lead! I've DL'd it and will install on my genealogy site this evening.

Thanks!!

Footie... the file is broken. It won't untar. I reported it, though and perhaps it will be fixed shortly.
