The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products.

One feature I LOVE with my MAC is the ability to search PDF files for specific words. However, there are times that some PDF documents are not searchable and I can’t figure out why. Any direction would be very helpful.
