Hi friends,
I've got a large program that has a side feature of displaying a pdf document related to what the operator is working on. So they click the "display .pdf" button and I used Open URL in Default Browser.vi to display a pdf. This was very easy to implement.
Our operators are now requesting that we search that pdf and display the search term. So if the operator is working on Step 6, we'll want to open that pdf, search for the words "Step 6" and display that page of the pdf file. Right now we're displaying the pdf in a browser, but I wouldn't mind opening the pdf in another manner (in adobe or within labview itself). I've attached an image of how I'm opening the pdf right now.
Does anyone know how to search for words in a pdf and display the pdf starting at that searched term? LabVIEW 2017, if that matters.
Thank you for your time,
-Andy
