The return value is always True (or -1), whether the text is in the document or not. I've kind of given up on that working by itself, but am trying to use the fact that it plugs the string into a search and executes it. Where I am at now is...

acrAVDoc.FindText MY_TEXT, False, True, False = Now Do
        DoEvents
Loop Until Now > i + 0.00001
acrApp.MenuItemExecute "SearchSubmenu, FindAgain" = Now Do
        DoEvents
Loop Until Now > i + 0.00001
acrApp.MenuItemExecute "NewBookmark"
acrPDBookmark.GetByTitle acrPDDoc, "Untitled"
acrPDBookmark.SetTitle MY_TEXT

This is working as of now, but the whole system seems incredibly unpredictable. If I tweak something, it seems to break everything. Sometimes I get the search pane on the right; sometimes I don't.
