Section 4.6: Searching the Document

The rightmost icon on the Toolbar allows you to search the contents of your document. Note that search is only available in documents that have been processed by the Aji Reader Service; if this has not yet happened, the search icon will be disabled. (See the Metadata section for more details.)

To search for a term, tap on the Search icon: this will raise the search interface:

Enter your search term (minimum 2 characters, numbers and punctuation permitted) and tap "Search" to find the next occurrence of your term (from the current view position in the document). If found, Aji Annotate will advance to the term and highlight the word with a yellow rectangle:

Note that you only need to enter the prefix of the search term you'd like to locate; for example, searching for the term "rea" will find the words "read", "reading", "Reader" -- any word starting with "rea". Searches are case-insensitive.

To find the next occurrence of the term for which you've searched, simply tap the search icon in the toolbar again. When finished searching, tap the PDF View display to hide the search interface.

In addition to searching within your document, Aji Annotate allows you to search all of your documents at once; see the Library Search section below for more details.
