Text files (documents) are the principal means for representing information and knowledge in several domains. Commonly, users store documents increasely in hard disks or online sotarge units. The users follow a personal organization based on one topic, but documents can contain several topics. Current search engines for documents are based on the file name or content, a search word or part of such word must exactly match. This paper proposes a method for representing document semantics taking into account the topics that documents contain. For this, a meta-graph is generated considering synonyms, hyponyms, and hypernyms from the relevant terms contained in the documents. The proposal have been compared against Google Desktop with interesting results.
