Adobe® Acrobat® Reader 4.0
Searching on the Web
Some Web search engines index PDF documents as well as HTML documents
on Web servers. And some search engines support PDF search highlighting,
although not all search engines that support PDF indexing support search
highlighting.
If you visit a Web site that uses a search engine that indexes PDF documents,
your search results list may include PDF documents. If the Web site uses a
search engine that supports PDF search highlighting, and if you open one of
the PDF documents in the search results list, the Highlight Next
and
Highlight Previous
buttons activate on the Acrobat Reader tool bar in your
Web browser. The search term is also highlighted in the document.
To go to the next search hit, click the Highlight Next button. To go to the
previous hit, click the Highlight Previous button. These two commands jump
across PDF documents, but not across HTML documents.
Reading embedded PDF files
HTML pages can include embedded PDF documents. An embedded PDF
document normally displays an image of the first page of the document in the
HTML document. The PDF document can be configured by the HTML author to
display, when clicked, in a separate window. The document displays in a
browser window or in an Acrobat Reader window, depending on how you have
configured your browser.
