Thank you for the education. I didn't give it much thought the pdf file
could consist of a bunch of scanned pages.
Funny I can come up with some old ball trouble shooting of boat anchors
but not on this "modern" stuff.
Gotta look into this some more.

Hi Ewing,
It's a function of the file. Most of the old tech manuals we see are
just pictures of text that have been scanned and put into a pdf file.
There's no text so there's nothing to search. It looks like Phantom
has OCR capabilities so it should be able to take a non-searchable pdf
and change it to a searchable pdf. How well it does it and how much
post-OCR editing is required is another matter.

Is that a function of the pdf file or the reader?
I've been using Foxit Phantom that will even search multiple pdf
files in the same folder.
Good luck in your quest.

Is there a pdf of the HP 5370B Manual that allows you to search for
text?
Thanks in advance,
