The Search tool cannot find text even though I can see it.

We have Acrobat Pro Version 2024.001.20629 and I am trying to search for some text like "Table 2-5". I can find "Table" (91 times) but when I type the space and 2-5, it says it cannot find anything. The PDF is a published document we got from ASCE and is licensed to our group.

Is there a way to find Table 2-5?

What you see is not always what is actually there... Could you share the file with us?

I'm not sure if I should share the copyrighted file that we paid for in an open forum. I'm sure there are very few users that are that interested in designing Transmission Line steel poles but I hate to post it. I guess I could ask the ASCE people that published the document how to do an effective search for terms. I was thinking there was some setting in Adobe that I was not familiar with.
