Whenever opening a PDF using the search parameter, such as: <http://www.mywebsite.com/mypdf.pdf#search=>"world%20peace" or <http://www.mywebsite.com/mypdf.pdf#search=%22world%20peace%22> Then if there are matches in the document which happen to be preceded by a quote, such as in: "World peace" is a phase often used lightly. Then when the PDF opens, along with the search pane, the search pane reports that there are 2 documents containing so-many matches and lists the same document twice -- once with only the matches that begin with the quote, and once again with the full complement of matches. This is apparently a Reader bug and is obviously confusing to the user. Anyone know a workaround? Thanks!
