I’m trying to read a .doc file into a database so that I can index it’s contents. Is there an easy way for PHP on Linux to read .doc files? Failing that is it possible to convert .doc files to rtf, pdf or some other ‘open’ format that is easy to read?
Note, I am not interested in .docx files.
There seems to be a library for accessing Word documents but not sure how to access it from PHP. I think the best solution would be to call their wv command from PHP.
