What is the extension of the file? meaning what is the type of file?

If I understand correctly you want to extract those pages from a document that contains a certain word.

For the solution, we need to know the extension of the file.

As above what type/kind of document are you asking about and what Adpobe program. Without knowing that no one can give you an answer.

I don't understand the question.  Which app?  Which type of file?

If I do a global search on a document for a word and I want to extract all the pages found with that word - how can that be done automatically without opening each page found?

Is this an Acrobat question?

 

I'm guessing you want to find all pages with a certain word in a large, multi-page PDF document and extract only those pages.
