Hello  
I have small pdf search site searches pdf over internet when somebody  
search  
URL look like [www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx.html](http://www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx.html) with (html  
extension)

google index this address with html and without html version so there  
are  
duplicate record on google index each search lies without html  
[www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx](http://www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx) and with html  
[www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx.html](http://www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx.html) version

what i would like to do is if i can make it around without html version  
([www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx](http://www.mypdfsearchwebsite.com/pdf/nginx)) will be returned 404 page rather  
than  
200 it could be also jail /pdf/ directory only allow html if html  
couldn’t  
find go to nginx 404 page.

i
