Adobe acrobat reader 7.0 User Manual

 

When you choose to search multiple PDF documents, three sets of additional search 
criteria are available under Use These Additional Criteria. These options let you restrict 
the results to those that match specified date criteria or that contain additional words in a 
particular document property, including the author, title, subject, file name, keywords, 
bookmarks, comments, image metadata, XMP metadata, object data, and indexed 
structure tags.

You can search just using document characteristics, without entering a search word. 

For example, you could search your local disk for all Adobe PDF documents that you 
created after a certain date.

Searching multiple PDF documents provides additional search criteria.

1.  In the Search PDF window, in Advanced Search options, select the check box adjacent to 

a set of search criteria.

2.  Specify a search criterion: Choose a document property from the first pop-up menu, and 

then choose a value from the adjacent pop-up menu.

3.  In the box, type the value of the criterion. If you choose Date Created or Date Modified in 

step 2, you can also click the pop-up menu to select the date from an interactive pop-up 
calendar. 

4.  If you want to add additional document characteristics to the search criteria, repeat steps 1-
