Hi, I have a requirement in which I have to index a text file using Lucene.
The text file data if from a PDF file. I have used Tika to extract text from
PDF and put it into the text file.
This may be your mistake - IIRC Tika isn't great at preserving structure
within PDFs. We had a similar requirement a while ago to index large
PDFs by paragraphs, and the paragraph markers were being lost. I suggest
you look at other ways of extracting the plain text - pdftotext may
preserve more of the structure, I think that's what we used. Once you
have the individual sections you can index them as separate documents in
Solr, with metadata to indicate the document they came from.

I want to index the text file in the following way.
1. I don't want to index the whole text file content.
2. I don't want to index sentence by sentence.
3. Instead, I want to index the text file by sections.(The text file is
huge)
How can I do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
