Feature Request: Option to exclude words in the header and footer of a document from the search results

Post by mkittel »

Would it be possible to add an advance feature to the search where the header and footer of a PDF document are excluded from the search results? Frequently the search term I am looking also appears as one of the words in a document footer. The is occurs often because the chapter title of a document relates to frequently searched words within the body of the document itself.

Hello mkittel,
I have created a formal feature request for this matter:
RT#4491: FR: Find/search tool, optional ignore headers
In the future, please simply ask about this ticket number and any member of our support staff will be able to give you a progress update.
While I cannot guarantee implementation, I can promise it will be seriously considered the next time we are looking for new features.
