Search and highlight programmatically without displaying toolbar #6307

Closed rahulpandya closed 9 years ago

rahulpandya commented 9 years ago

Is there a way to implement the search and highlight functionality programmatically? Ideally, we render the page without displaying the toolbar and can use javascript to pass in a piece of text/phrase and highlight all occurrences. I see the search code in PDFFindController. I'm just not quite sure how to trigger it. I've also been trying to add code to examples/components/pageviewer.js because this was an established example without the toolbar, but it uses the PDFPageView object and I'm not sure if that's an issue at all.

This request is already tracked in #1875. To work without the toolbar you should indeed use the components example.

PDFFindController now does not require find bar to function, see also https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/examples/components/simpleviewer.js#L57
