Subject:Searching PDFs on the Web From:"John Wolf" <johnwolf -at- earthlink -dot- net> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 17 Nov 2000 09:22:16 -0600
Is there a way to search through multiple PDFs with Acrobat open in a web
browser? Ideally, I'd like to build a front end using Acrobat that will
allow me to use Acrobat's search capability to enter a keyword and search
through all PDFs in a folder. Is this possible? Can I use Catalog through
Acrobat open in a browser? Are there alternatives to full text searches
through PDF in a browser? If so, can someone get me started on where to look
for information?
Thanks.
