PDFs generated with Slimjet are not searchable

Post by nima_amin »

Hello,
I have just noticed that PDFs which are generated through the function print page are NOT searchable. This is quite annoying since I had to find a name on a huge website full of text from Last Wills, so I thought I generate a PDF and search it. Nothing. I tried with several PDFs I had generated with Slimjet before. The same. I have now generated a PDF from the same Last Will website
( http://www.tngennet.org/records/madison ... _1-10.html ) with the print function in Pale Moon Browser and voila immediately found the name via the PDF search function. Would be cool if you could fix that, since it is not fun to always have to switch browsers, especially when you are logged in somewhere, such as Familysearch, Ancestry, or such service which allow only to be logged in with ONE browser at a time.
