By way of historical context, it used to be that Acrobat Reader
came in two different versions--a smaller (faster to download)
executable that did not have the Search function and a larger
executable that did include the Search capability. At least they
finally came to their senses and now only release a single, full-
feature version.

Only moments ago, I asked where the "keyword in context" search results had gone in Adobe Reader 7. The answer proves to be very simple, and I've got no idea why it didn't work the first several times I tried it this way: search by clicking the binoculars icon in the toolbar (or opening the Edit menu and selecting Search instead of Find) rather than using the keyboard shortcut (Command or Control + F). D'oh!

Thanks to Marci Bethel, Alice Falk, and Cris Simpson for swift responses. (If you replied and I didn't thank you, sorry... your reply hadn't arrived when I wrote this.)
