I have a set-up with very large documents too. Here is two different solutions that I have used in the past: 1) Use highlighting with hl.alternateField and hl.maxAlternateFieldLength http://wiki.apache.org/solr/HighlightingParameters 2) Create an extra field (indexed="false" and stored="true") using copyField just for display purposes. (&fl=shortField) <copyField source="largeField" dest="shortField" maxChars="300"/> http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SchemaXml#Copy_Fields Also, didn't used by myself yet but I *think* this can be accomplished by using a custom Transformer too. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DocTransformers
