Front index for a book is a tabular management of topics and subtopics with page numbers. Various ongoing researches focus on front index extraction from e-books using various techniques such as image processing. The present scheme focuses on front index extraction from research documents using a string matching algorithm. The paper also describe the working of a framework called Meta-Content framework for e-books, MCFE, which uses the front index extraction process and uses the extracted front index as meta information.
