In Acrobat Reader 9, under Edit > Preferences > Search, the "Enable search highlights from external highlight server" option is by default set to false. For those of us who use third party search engines to search PDF files on the web, this is a disaster. The only way to enable hit highlighting in this situation is to have users change their settings manually, which is a lot to ask of people who are not tech savvy.

Does anyone know of a solution to this problem? Would Adobe change the default settings to true in future versions? Is there some kind of workaround?

Thanks,

Simon
