Cannot find any way to do a text search inside a PDF document when it is displayed by the builtin PDF player in Firefox.

If there is a way, how is it done?

If there isn't a way, it seems an obvious enhancement.

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Bringing up the standard "Find" (CTRL + F) feature should work within a PDF document in Firefox.

son of a gun. I've always searched in firefox by hitting slash and typing the search term, but that doesn't seem to work in the pdf reader. I guess, if I had searched for key bindings I coulda figured that out for myself.

thanks!

Note that you might find all the results until you scroll through the whole document to get it fully loaded.
