Hi Carla,

in this case I would collate all the files with Adobe Acrobat (or appropriate portions of files, if filesizes are very large) and export this to either Word, text (or even HTML-format).

This is searchable with tools like search&replace, where you can easily implement a list of words. Of course there will be no replacing possible with the same step in the PDF files.

It would only give you the idea what is going on in these old documents.

Best regards -- Tino H. Haida, Berlin

If you work for a Global company, you may be aware of China's Patent & Advertising laws. There are certain terms that are blacklisted, and violations can result in fines and even sanctions against companies.

Is anyone aware of a tool that would allow you to search multiple PDFs and compare against a list of terms and flag instances?

We want to look at our published PDF files, hundreds of them, and some of which are quite old, and see if we can find anything that is a potential violation . Unfortunately, most of these files weren't created in XML/CMS, but in Frame, InDesign, and even other apps, so searching source files isn't the best option.
