TIP 12: Searching for PDF Files on the Internet

With one mouse click, Acrobat can take the hassle out of searching for a PDF file on the Internet. Click Search the internet using Yahoo (or Google, depending on the preference you choose) from the Search pane's list of options shown in Figure 11a.

If you don't have the Search pane displayed, click Search the Internet on the Search the Internet toolbar to open the Search pane, ready for an Internet search. Right-click/Control-click the toolbar well to display the toolbar list, and click Search the Internet to open the toolbar. Type the terms you wish to search, and define how precise you want the search to be (Figure 12). Click the pull-down arrow and specify whether you want to search for all the words, for the exact phrase, or for any of the words. You can narrow your search to only PDF documents by clicking Search only in PDF Files.

Click Search the Internet to start your search. Your browser opens to Yahoo (or Google if you've changed your default search engine) with the results displayed in a list. When you click a result, the PDF document opens in Adobe Reader within your Web browser. Close the browser to terminate the search.

If you want to search locally, click Search Across Local PDF documents to return to the basic Search pane. You have to close the Web browser window manually.
