Pdf page titles and descriptions errors
-
In my weekly crawl report I suddenly have a huge number of title not found and missing page descriptions errors for all of my pdf files. The pdfs do have a page title (defined in the file/properties tab) However these page titles are not being picked up by the crawler or google. Any ideas how do I fix this? ( I am using the Adrobat 9 Distiller)

Can you post an example PDF link ? Are they cached in Google ? You might also want to considering generating a PDF XML Sitemap.

Here is a link to an example::
http://www.iqms.com/products/brochures/Automotive.pdf
If you do a google search for "iqms automotive brochure" you will see the page title is: Automotive Expertise-IQMS

Hi Perri,
Thanks for writing in and sorry your crawl diagnostics are looking off.
This is actually a small bug with our crawler counting images and PDFs as actually pages. We are aware of the issue and our engineers have figured out what has caused the issue, but it may take them some to make the necessary changes to the crawler to correct the issue for the images and PDFs returning errors in the crawl diagnostics report. Thank you for your patience while we look into this.
I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
