- Thread-topic: find text in Acrobat
This script fails here.
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Pro"
tell document 1
set myFoundText to find text string "News" with whole words
end tell
end tell
Return myFoundText
The return line errors out with "The variable myFoundText is not defined."
meaning that no result is returned from the script.
The word it searches for appears numerous times in the PDF file.
