How to Search word in PDF?

Hi,
I am developing windows application, which will accept PDF file path as input.
Users are allowed to  search for the specific word in the PDF and replace with new word.
I don't have any idea on this. So can any one help me to start with.
how can i search word in PDF and edit the PDF file.
Thanks,

PDF is a not a format that enables replacement of textual content, since it doesn't reflow.  You need to discuss with the person that gave you the job how difficult/impossible that it is.

    How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

    You will need an app (or apps) on your iPad that is capable of reading the documents, as they will be saved with the app - if you don't have such an app then there is nothing to transfer them to or to read/access them.
    One method of transferring them is toconnect your iPad to your computer's iTunes, select it's app tab, and then scroll to the bottom of it - you should the apps That you've got that are capable of file-sharing (if you've got any).  Selecting/high-lighting one of them should then allow you to add files to it via the box to the right of it.
    An alternative way to get the documents onto your iPad is if the app that you want to transfer them to has a wifi setting, which will then allow you to transfer the documents wirelessly. You can also send the documents to yourself as attachments and then use Mail's 'open in' facility to copy them into your chosen app.
    Edit : more info on file sharing from the manual :
    File Sharing lets you transfer files between iPad and your computer. You can share files created with a compatible app and saved in a supported format.
    Apps that support file sharing appear in the File Sharing Apps list in iTunes. For each app, the Files list shows the documents that are on iPad. See the app’s documentation for how it shares files; not all apps support this feature.
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, select an app from the list on the left.
    On the right, select the file you want to transfer, then click “Save to” and choose a destination on your computer.
    Transfer a file from your computer to iPad:
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, click Add.
    Select a file, then click Choose (Mac) or OK (PC).
    The file is transferred to your device and can be opened using an app that supports that file type. To transfer more than one file, select each additional file.
    Delete a file from iPad: Select the file in the Files list, then tap Delete.

  • How to search in a pdf package via command line

    How can I search a specific PDF file within a PDF package via the command line? Previously I have used the following code in VB6 to search a single PDF file successfully.
    acroPath = String(128, " ")        'initialise this string
    resultStatus = FindExecutable(pdfPath, vbNullString, acroPath)
    acroPath = Replace(acroPath, vbNullChar, "")        'Get rid of the null character
    acroPath = """" & Trim$(acroPath) & """"
    cmdLineString = acroPath & " /n /A ""search=" & searchString & """ " & pdfPath
    Call Shell(cmdLineString, vbNormalFocus)
    I now receive this file as part of a PDF package, so how can I amend the command line to search the specific file within the package?
    I only have Reader, not the full blown Acrobat version.

    Sorry forgot to say that I am using Acrobat Reader 8.1 on Win XP SP2

  • How 2 search inside a PDF document using the firefox internal PDF reader

    Cannot find any way to do a text search inside a PDF document when it is displayed by the builtin PDF player in Firefox.
    If there is a way, how is it done?
    If there isn't a way, it seems an obvious enhancement.

    son of a gun. I've always searched in firefox by hitting slash and typing the search term, but that doesn't seem to work in the pdf reader. I guess, if I had searched for key bindings I coulda figured that out for myself.
    thanks!

  • How to search text in pdf file?

    Hi all
    I have to store the cover of a newspaper that include images and text and then should be able to search keywords in the cover.
    I've read about to store in pdf format and use intermedia text.
    I am just wondering the way to store and to do the search .
    Thanks all

    Hi,
    You need store the PDF document in a BLOB column and create a CTXSYS index type.
    e.g.: (.doc files)
    CREATE INDEX I_DOC ON DOC_TABLE (DOC_COLUMN) INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT PARAMETERS ('SYNC (ON COMMIT)');Then you can test typing this SQL below:
    select score(1) from DOC_TABLE where contains(DOC_COLUMN, 'My text', 1) > 0;In my case, i use this index for purpose to search on Word Documents (.doc)
    Maybe this link help you to create an index type using FILTERS, in order to search on PDF files:

    how is it possible to make one pdf file starting from 20 pdf's in order to search for an item in one operation.
    I do not need to change the contenance (pro edition off adobat?)

    Adobe Reader has the ability to search multiple pdf's. Just open it, select Search from the Edit menu and select All PDF Documents in from the Where would you like to search? option group.
    You could also set up a search folder in Finder. Add a search category of "Kind" is "PDF." Limit the scope to whatever folder holds them all.

  • I have Adobe Reader XI with the package that allows me to send pdfs and convert pdfs to Word. When I open a pdf and try to search the search shows no matches even though the word I am searching for is in the document. Any suggestions how to search?

    I have Adobe Reader XI with the package that allows me to send pdfs and convert pdfs to Word. When I open a pdf and try to search the search shows no matches even though the word I am searching for is in the document. Any suggestions how to search?

    Once again, my thanks for your assistance. If I may impose on your generosity one more time, if I understand you correctly if I create a document on Word or WordPerfect, print it and scan it to create a pdf, the search function will not work. But, if I create the pdf document in Word the search function will work. Unfortunately, I am not sure how I create a pdf document in Word other than by printing it and scanning it. Could you please explain.

    In the Find window (Ctrl+F) there's an option to replace the searched text.

    Can any body tell me how search text in PDF
    and MS Word document through Java code, any
    body has code or any suggestion to giveYes.
    First, you need to work out how to read each document type from Java.
    E.g, for MS Word you could use Apache Jakarta POI - HWPF: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hwpf/index.html
    Then, you use Apache Lucene to index and search.
    See http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/index.html
