Search Text in PDF. Search and Erase

The search tool is one of pdfFiller’s the latest enhancements. Using this tool, you can find a word or a phrase in a PDF document. Now you will save even more time editing or annotating your PDFs because our search tool not only finds words, but also enables you to erase, highlight, or redact them. To activate the Search tool, click the Search button on the main toolbar or press CTRL+F on your keyboard.

The search toolbar will appear under the editing tools

Type the text you want to find in the search field. The counter will show you the total number of search terms found in the document and the ordinal number of the current search term. The currently selected search term is highlighted in green, the others in red.

Image

To jump to the next found term, click the down arrow; to go to the previous instance, click the up arrow. To erase the selected term, click Erase.

What do you like best?
How easy I can manage PDF documents (fill, convert to an Office document, and signatures). I'm very glad!!
What do you dislike?
Nothing, it's easy to use and fast. I recommend this tool to anybody.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I work in a Legal Department and we review a lot of contracts on a daily basis. Most of the documents came in on PDF format, so using PDF filler to convert the file to an MS Office is easy.

My name is Jonathan from Africa My name is Jonathan from Africa, I needed a form via PDFfiller but was unable to use the service and was billed while on 30 days trial. That got me upset but after contacting Shennon online support, I was assisted, and in less than 10 minutes, it was resolved. Shennon exceeded my expectation. Satisfied. Therefore I commend Shennon for a great and wow customer service. Because of this singular act, I will recommend your company to friends.Thank you
