USING ACROBAT X PRO
Searching and indexing
Last updated 10/11/2011
Note: If documents are encrypted (have security applied to them), you cannot search them as part of a multiple-document
search. Open those documents first and search them one at a time. However, documents encrypted as Adobe Digital
Editions are an exception and can be searched as part of a multiple-document search.
1 Open Acrobat on your desktop (not in a web browser).
2 Do one of the following.
In the Find toolbar, type the search text, and then choose Open Full Acrobat Search from the pop-up menu.
In the Search window, type the search text.
3 In the Search window, select All PDF Documents In. From the pop-up menu directly below this option, choose
Browse For Location.
4 Select the location, either on your computer or on a network, and click OK.
5 To specify additional search criteria, click Show Advanced Options, and specify the options.
6 Click Search.
During a search, you can click a result or use keyboard shortcuts to navigate the results without interrupting the
search. Clicking the Stop button under the search-progress bar cancels further searching and limits the results to the
occurrences already found. It doesn’t close the Search window or delete the Results list. To see more results, run a new
search.
Search a PDF Portfolio
In a PDF Portfolio, you can search component PDF files as well as several other file types. Windows users can search
Microsoft Office documents (such as .doc, .xls, and .ppt), AutoCAD drawing file formats (.dwg and .dwf), HTML files,
and Rich Text Format (.rtf) files. Mac OS users can search Microsoft Word (.doc), HTML, and .rtf files.
Note: To enable Microsoft and AutoCAD file searches, the IFilters appropriate to the file types must be installed. IFilters
are typically installed with their applications, but can also be downloaded from product websites.
1 Open the PDF Portfolio in Acrobat on your desktop (not in a web browser).
2 In the Search box on the PDF Portfolio toolbar, type the search text.
3 To specify additional search criteria, open the pop-up menu, and specify the options.
The search results show all files where the text was found. For PDF files, expand the list to see the results in context.
Click a search result to go to the location of the text in the PDF. For other types of files, click Open to open and search
the file.

of occurrence.
Jump to a specific instance in the search results (single PDFs only)
