TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The company I work for maintains a text-based bulletin board for client
communication. We put copies of our printed publications on the BB in PDF
format.
We've been unable to find a tool that can provide search capabilities within
PDF files in this environment and are concerned that users won't use the
online versions as a result.
We know that PDF files can be searched on the Internet and we're planning on
eventually moving to the Internet to replace the text BB.
If anybody is familiar with a tool for this purpose, please let me know!
Thanks for your help! :-)
