Adobe,

I used a minolta scanner (Bizhub 360) to scan a magazine to PDF, but when I opened the document up in Adobe Reader 9 and tried to search the text for key words, it would not let me search the document. I then scanned a regular memorandum document and it allowed me to search the document. Can someone please tell me why I cannot search the document for key words on the magazine?

Cheers
