I'd like to be able to add a search bar within a pdf so that when the viewer opens the pdf, the search bar is always there to search the content. Is that possible?
Yes, this can be done, but searching is an Acrobat Feature, not PDF. This search bar won't work in other viewers, or on mobile.
There are a number of ways to do this, from simply activating the Acrobat Search menu item to performing a full text search with Acrobat JavaScript.
The easiest method is to create a button, and use the "execute a menu item" action with the "Edit > Find" menu item.
