How to Content Search InDesign CC with PageZephyr Search Mac:
Turn on Spotlight indexing for each volume of InDesign CC files to search.
Click the word “here” (in blue text) on the “Welcome to PageZephyr Search” window. Allow about a half hour for initial indexing.
In the upper left of the Search Parameter Area is the Any/All Popup. You can select either:
• “Any” to return a result if any one of the search criteria is found, or
• “All” to return a result for every search criteria listed.
You can search either:
• the InDesign file’s text content, or
• the InDesign filename.
You can then select an additional content specifier:
1. “begins with” means the filename, or a word in the text stream, begins with the specified characters.
2. “ends with” means the filename, or a word in the text stream, ends with the specified characters.
3. “matches” means the entire filename, or an entire word in the text stream, exactly matches the specified text.
4. “contains” means a filename, or an entire word in the text stream, contains the specified text. This is good for finding partial words or phrases.
In the PageZephyr Search text content entry area, type in the word or phrase you are seeking.
For multiple search criteria, click the “+” button and add additional parameters to the search.
Right-Clicking on a highlighted word or phrase will popup a menu that gives you two choices:
“Show Selection in Document” attempts to open the file in the latest version of InDesign installed on your computer. It highlights the same text you have highlighted in PageZephyr Search. This is a great way to see the text in context within the InDesign document.
”Copy” will copy the highlighted text to your clipboard so it is available to paste into other applications.
