Implement search

Open izuzak opened this issue 10 years ago • 6 comments

Would be :cool: to provide a way to find text in the PDF (even without highlighting the specific match), perhaps even with the standard search package somehow.

Should be possible to get to the text of the PDF with page.getTextContent which is provided by pdf.js -- see this example.

+1 Using find-and-replace seems the way to, because it opens already via its keybinding, it just does not actually search.
