Hello

I do always this way.

select each result and zoom, you will jump to the page.

var doc = app.documents[0];
app.findTextPreferences = null;

//current zoom percentage
var zoom_bk = app.activeWindow.zoomPercentage;

//keyword
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "anytext";

//found collection
var result = app.findText();

for (var i=0; i < result.length; i++) {
     result.select();
     app.activeWindow.zoomPercentage = 400;
     //jump to each "anytext"
     alert(app.findTextPreferences.findWhat + " was found " + (i+1) + "/" + result.length);
};
app.activeWindow.zoomPercentage = zoom_bk;
