no way to found nothing inside the pdf

[guillermop16589502]

Hi i work with a lot of pdf files and i need make search to found a specific file looking inside to found the correct numbres inside this files.

so i try to use the search tool and advance search tools but i never found nothing inside it. so i have to open each one of them i read all ones registers there's to found it.

some help?

Hola yo trabajo con un gran numero de documentos de pdf y la tarea es bien sencilla; buscar que documento de pdf contiene el registro que estoy buscando.

es el caso que acrobat no consigue jamas nada de lo que le pido que busque. no importa si estoy buscando algo que esta dentro de un documento que estoy mirando o si le pido que haga una búsqueda avanzada para que busque en un loto de archivo pdf y me muestre el que contiene ese registro en particular.

no se si la falla es mi acrobat o es alguna seguridad que contiene el pdf que no permite que se lea dentro de el para buscar dichos registros.

You need to make sure the text in the file is real, and not a part of an image.

Can you select the text with the mouse? If so, what happens when you copy it and then paste it in another application, like Word?

The first thing to look at in your Advanced Search is the location. Are your documents all in the Downloads folder? If not, change the location. Does that fix it?
