Use DocSearch plus to search file content of pdf files
"PDF, or Portable Document Format, is a widely-used file format for sharing and viewing documents. It preserves the layout and formatting of a document across different devices and platforms, making it an ideal choice for business reports, ebooks, and more. PDFs are easy to create, share, and print."
Due to the widespread use of PDF files, the demand for searching PDF document content has increased. Docsearch Plus excels in searching within PDF files. However, there are still some important considerations to keep in mind:
- Sometimes, when you index and search content of pdf files, although it is not common, but occasionally, some pdf files cannot be indexed due to damage, but these pdf files can be read and opened by pdf reader.
This is because most pdf readers have a built-in self-repair function. But DocSearch does not have this function, so you must use pdf repair software to repair it before indexing. - The pdf file is the most complicated file format I have ever seen, so it is quite laborious to obtain its text. Because of this, searching for the content of pdf files must consume a lot of memory, which makes the android system sometimes display "out of memory" error message, especially when the pdf file is large.
In this case, the best solution is to use the Windows version of DocSearch. Or use some pdf conversion tools to convert these pdf files into plain text files before searching its content.
