Plug-in for...?

Sherlock's find-by-content indexing plug-in can _index_ PDF content. (My
own Sherlock script will take a dropped folder of group of files and index
them.)

If you're using the full version of Acrobat (maybe the reader, I don't
know), the dictionary provides an internal GUI scripting command:

execute : Execute the menu item as if the user clicked on it
execute reference -- The menu item to execute

So you could select all, copy...

I haven't tried using the 'execute' command with Acrobat, so I don't know if
that'd be useful to you.
