I review thousands pages medical records that have been converted with OCR to PDFS. I need
to review pages that were typewritten -not hand written notes. Is thee a way to locate and segregate all of these pages before I begin the review?

Also, I have twenty key words I need to see in context. Is there a way to search for all words at one time instead of entering each individually in search box?

Thanks

I use state of art hardware, acrobat 8 professional. Will obtain additional software if helpful.

Hopefully your pdf collection has bookmarks and were properly tagged in the authoring application.

Try these Javascripts as mouse up button actions:

Example 1

var bkmName = app.response({
cQuestion: "Enter the name of the bookmark to find",
cTitle: "Bookmark Search and Execute"
});
if ( bkmName != null ) {
var bkm = searchBookmarks(this.bookmarkRoot, 0, bkmName );
if ( bkm != null ) bkm.execute();
else app.alert("Bookmark not found");
}

Example 2
Searches through the document for the word “Acrobat” and create a link around that word. Note: you can modify this script to eliminate the URL address.

for (var p = 0; p < this.numPages; p++)
{
var numWords = this.getPageNumWords(p);
for (var i=0; i
