How to search ONLY in .PDF files

#1 Post by mgroen » 01.03.2021, 13:38

Something is bothering me about FreeCommanders search function:
I want to search only in .PDF files.

what is the correct location to filter out all other file types <> pdf?

I would put in to "File name:" *.pdf, so that only .pdf files are searched and in "containing text" the text you are searching.
Both are in the location tab of the search dialog.

You can search for content in the pdf file only with converter https://freecommander.com/en/faq-search ... f-for-text.
