Searching texts in multiple PDF files
The Search tool in the File toolbar or Search in the Edit menu (Shift +
Ctrl+F) opens a dialog box where you can enter a search string with the
options described above.
The search can be in the current document only, selected PDF files in the
current PDF portfolio (see later), all PDF files in the portfolio (including
those in sub-folders) or in a folder on your computer that you specify,
including or excluding its sub-folders. In all cases, only PDF files are
searched.
Hint: To search just a few PDF files, copy them to a temporary folder
and do a folder search or put them into a portfolio and search that.
To do a portfolio search, the current document must be a portfolio or a
package. Packages can also be searched using the portfolio commands,
since they are a simplified form of portfolio and are displayed in the
portfolio viewer.
Search results are presented in the lower part of the search dialog box.
Each occurrence shows a line of text with the found string colored blue.
Click on a line to jump to the page containing the text. The number of
occurrences is shown bottom-right.
For a folder search, after entering a search string, you can click Advanced
to specify additional search criteria that help you find a specific file among
many. Under Key choose a PDF file information category (Subject,
Author, Creation date etc). Under Value enter a search string or a date
and under Operation choose whether the search string should be included
or excluded, or make date searching choices. Add criteria as desired;
searches will find only files that meet ALL the criteria you define.
