Hi, is there a way to search (search option within MS-Internet Explorer) information from within PDF files that are included within my Help Application ?
Thank you for your answers.

RH's search will not do that. You will need a third party tool such as ZoomSearch. See the topic on my site.

Thank you Peter. I'll take a look at your document and I might ask you some questions.

Hi Bob_177

I'd like to expound on the answer my fellow Adobe Community Expert Peter gave. Indeed it is correct that the basic functionality included with RoboHelp won't allow this type of searching. But there is another component you may acquire called the RoboHelp Server. It must be installed on your server and configured by your IT staff. But it allows you to place .PDF and .DOC files on the server and perform searches that will include the contents of these file types.

Cheers... Rick
