Description Bart Van Assche 2011-01-01 15:37:47 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                Linux

Currently okular allows to search through one document at a time - the displayed document. It would be very convenient if Okular would be able to search through multiple documents, e.g. all documents in a specified directory. Adobe Reader already allows this.

Reproducible: Always

Hi, Okular does not aim to be a "document library" program or similar so we do not think implementing this feature makes sense from our point of view of what we want okular to be.

Thanks a lot for caring about Okular and suggesting improvements to it and sorry we don't agree with your suggested feature :-)
