Create and manage an index in PDF

You can create an Index that consists of a catalog of PDF documents to speed up searching across a large volume of documents. It’s faster and more efficient to search the index than to search the document. Before indexing PDF documents, you have to collect all PDF documents to be indexed into one or more folders. Make sure that the existing folder you choose contains only the PDF files to be indexed. The way you search documents without embedded indexes is exactly the same as how your search those with indexes.

2. Choose Basic > Search > Index, and then select Embedded Index… from the menu.
