you must first compute the Fermi level in your system, using its definition, that is,
Ef is the energy value such that the integral of the DOS with respect to the energy
equals the number of electrons.
You could plot the third column of the "fildos" file (after DOS calculation) as a function
of energy, and see where this curve intercepts the number of electrons in your system.

you used "fildos", whereas projwfc expects "filpdos" (the former is for dos.x post processing)
