Hi,
I have downloaded a trial of Acrobat XI. I am looking for a way to quickly and automatically highlight a word in multiple PDF files.I can find lots of questions online about doing this, but no easy answers. When I use the Avanced Search tool in Acrobat XI I can see no way to highlight all the found words.
I found a free Acrobat X plugin that claims to do this in Acrobat X (http://acrobatusers.com/assets/uploads/actions/Find_and_Highlight_Word s_and_Phrases.pdf), but use of the plugin requires me to edit the Action and enter my word list. I can not edit an Adobe X action in XI so I can not use this plugin. I tried to create an Action in Acrobat XI but it does not appear to let me search and highlight words.
I know that Adobe JavaScript exists but I am not a real programmer and do not have time to develop/support a script to do this.
Does anyone know of a working method (free or paid) to highlight words in multiple PDF files? I am happy with batch file scripting so if there is a way to do it with one file from the command line then I can probably automate it for all files.
Many thanks for your help.
