I created page labels for my document and want to search for them but when using CTRL+F the page does not show up as seen below. Another solution would be to order/sort the pages by their label, is this possible?

    @Forrest Simmons Thank you for the reply! I can filter by markup but this requires a markup to be on each page, is there a way to search without using the markup filters? If not do you know of a way to add a markup to each page without doing it manually?

    Solution: Add page labels, add markup to one page (I used a textbox w the date) then right click and add markup to all pages. Use page label filter in the mark up section to search

    Maybe add a text box that contains the date, then right-click and select "add to pages"

  • I believe Ctrl-F will only search for page content.

    Try filtering or searching by "page label" in the markups list. That should accomplish your goal.

  • Is the cable label what you are searching for on the page? Can you OCR the sheet/document? Then Ctrl-F should work.

  • To add to what Forrest Simmons says, once determined that the page label is actually on the sheet, I you want to toggle off "Case Sensitive" and "Whole Words Only".

    I see what everyone is suggesting - add a markup to every page so all pages are in the markup list - but it would be nice to be able to search by page label without any additional steps. @Harper Shaw I'd suggest you make this a feature request that others can vote on. Revu 21 expanded search to other areas but there may be other areas people would like to use search that isn't implemented yet.
