Acrobat Pro -- Batch Search Files

 

Direct purchase using PayPal ($80 only per license)!

This batch script will allow you to process an entire folder of files for a certain term, and then perform an action on them in case the term was found. The actions available are:

• Copy to a folder: Specify an output folder to which all the files with a match will be copied.
• Create a PDF summary of the file paths: At the end of the batch a new PDF file will be created, containing the paths of the matching files.
• Write file paths to the console: Will print the paths of the matching files to the built-in console of Acrobat.
• Print entire file: Will send each matching file to the printer.
• Print matching pages: Will print only the actual pages in the matching files where the match was found.
• Print matching pages with highlights: Same as above, but will also highlight the matches on the actual pages.

Here's how the dialog window looks like:
