Dear All,

Thanks for this great PDF-reader, I stumbled upon it recently and it is really amazing software!

Only one thing is still missing that would be very helpful. An option to "highlight all" when searching for words in the "Find" dialogue.

Another very important feature would be to find/highlight multiple words with one query. In a way how this Firefox add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... highlight/) is doing it. This would make it much more efficient to skim texts.

Thank you very much!

hello!
Following this thread, you could implement a simple "search" function and an advanced one. In advanced mode you could choose the following:
1) that allows searching for several words and that the "closeness" of them can be defined: a) that they are in the same sentence; b) same paragraph; c) on the same sheet.
2) that allows you to ignore spelling signs such as accents or accents when searching.
3) that allows searching directly within a folder inside several pdf's.

Thank you in advance to the developers and the entire team behind this.
