Table Of Contents
l Primary Sort Order:Determines how the search results will be sorted (results are always ascending). The 3
available options are:
l Document name:Sorts by the name of the document (the same as the ones seen in the Document
drop-down above). Note that selecting this option when filtering by document results in no sorting at all.
l Date:Sorts by document creation date.
l PDFName: Sorts by the PDFfile name.
l All search criteria:Determines whether the search criteria should be true only within a single Page of the
PDF file, or anywhere in the pages.
l Files Created:Filters the results by date. Use the drop-down to select a pre-determined setting (such as
"Today"or "Last six months" for example)or select Custom to enable the From and To options to manually
set the date filter. When selecting a pre-determined setting, the From and To box below will display the actual
dates that the period corresponds to.
l From/To:Use these boxes to specify the start and end dates, respectively, when you select Custom in the
Files created box. You can enter dates in these boxes in two ways. You can click in the box and modify the
date, or you can click the arrow on the right of the edit box to display a calendar that reflects the date that cur-
rently appears in the edit box. Use the arrows at the top of the calendar to navigate through the months, and
click on a date to select it. When you select a date, the calendar disappears and the edit box displays the
selected date.
4. Add search criteria to your search (see below).
5. Click Search to initiate the search or Reset to reset all the options to their defaults.
The Search button is only enabled if there is at least one PDFin the Search Database that is currently used.
Adding a Search Criterion
While some filtering and sorting is made through the Document and Files Created options, searches are mainly defined
through a set of criteria which are defined in the Criteria box.
1. Click the Add button. A new criterion line appears.
2. Enter or select the information in the 3 options of the criterion line:
l Search Field (Left): Select which field to search from. Each field present in the PDFdocument will be listed here,
along with the PDFName entry (which is automatically present).
l Search Operator (Center):Select from a list of possible operators such as Start With, End With, Equal To, Con-
tains, Greater Than, etc.
SQLSearch
Once search parameters are selected in the Basic tab, clicking on the "SQL"view displays the SQLequivalent of the
Basic search options and criteria.
