think about ligatures.
i think your pdf contains them and okular doesn’t find the letters “f” and “i” 
in this order since there is in fact only the ligature glyph “fi”.
i think should convert every search query  to a regular expression searching 
either the ligature or the single letters:
gadaffi → gada(ffi|ffi|ffi)

Okular can't find words with 'fi'.
