Hello,

I have created a basic plugin.

In that plugin I want to make use of search plugin to search a text inside the PDF document and highlight it.

IAC documentation says that we can use the Search plugin in our own plugin to use its functionality.

Can you please tell me how can I achieve this?

Thank you in advance!

There's separate documentation for Search. Not sure if it still work but here it is from SDK 6: http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/SearchAPIReference.pdf

Hello,

Thank you for this documentation.

Yes, I tried with same API reference and able to search the text and highlight it.

The problem is, when it searches the text, it also opens a search panel at left side of the document.

I am herewith attaching the screenshot of the result:

How can I remove this panel from the result?

Thanks
