IndexSectionsAsPages

Specifies whether to treat sections, in IDX documents, as pages.

When you set this parameter to TRUE:

  • IDOL can return page numbers in query results, showing the pages in which the query terms were present.
  • A document that has sections is still indexed as a single document, but IDOL stores term offset information for each page. This has a minimal impact on performance and index size. Documents without sections are unaffected.

NOTE: This feature is available when you index documents in IDX format, but not in XML format.

TIP: You can divide PDF documents into sections based on page breaks, by setting ImportPDFPageSectioning=TRUE in your Connector Framework Server configuration file.
