Use the automatic text search to quickly locate a word or partial word across an entire static proof. All matches will be highlighted – and you can easily navigate through the search results, and add a comment with a click.
What text search does
Scans the full proof for your search term.
Highlights all matching occurrences, including whole-word and partial matches.
Lets you move between matches using next and previous arrows. As you navigate, the proof automatically jumps to the correct page and location.
Allows you to refine results by matching whole words only (for example, “art” won’t match “partial”) and/or matching case (so “Art” won’t match “art”).
