Author Topic: Acrobat Reader find function Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 05-27-2004 05:25 PM                        Just how do you switch the Acrobat reader find function from a small window floating above the main page to the list which opens on the right side (like the contents window)? I looked everywhere under settings but couldn`t find the option. Yet the Reader which I have on my home computer opens that window which gives you a list of the search results rather than the floating window which only displays one result and highlights it on the main page.  |  IP: Logged Rob Butler Film Handler Posts: 91 From: Westford, MA, USA Registered: Mar 2004 posted 05-27-2004 06:46 PM                     I think you're using 2 different versions of Acrobat Reader. I have 6.0 which has the search feature in the sidebar, but IIRC, 5.0 has the seperate window, so I guess the answer to your question would be to go to acrobat.com and download version 6.0  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

The last several versions of Acrobat reader have been available as both a "full" version and ...uh I guess a "not so full" version.  |  IP: Logged
