Finding Words
You can use the Find command to find a complete word or part of a word in the current PDF document. Acrobat Reader looks for the word by reading every word on every page in the file, including text in form fields.
To find a word using the Find command:
1. Click the Find button (Binoculars), or choose Edit > Find.
2. Enter the text to find in the text box.
3. Select search options if necessary:
Match Whole Word Only finds only occurrences of the complete word you enter in the box. For example, if you search for the word stick, the words tick and sticky will not be highlighted.
Match Case finds only words that contain exactly the same capitalization you enter in the box.
Find Backwards starts the search from the current page and goes backwards through the document.
4. Click Find. Acrobat Reader finds the next occurrence of the word.
To find the next occurrence of the word, Do one of the following:
Choose Edit > Find Again
Reopen the find dialog box, and click Find Again.
(The word must already be in the Find text box.)
Copying and pasting text and graphics to another application
You can select text or a graphic in a PDF document, copy it to the Clipboard, and paste it into another application such as a word processor. You can also paste text into a PDF document note or into a bookmark. Once the selected text or graphic is on the Clipboard, you can switch to another application and paste it into another document.
Note: If a font copied from a PDF document is not available on the system displaying the copied text, the font cannot be preserved. A default font is substituted.
To select and copy it to the clipboard:
1. Select the text tool T, and do one of the following:
To select a line of text, select the first letter of the sentence or phrase and drag to
the last letter.
To select multiple columns of text (horizontally), hold down Ctrl+Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) as you drag across the width of the document.
To select a column of text (vertically), Hold down Ctrl+Alt (Windows) or Option+Command (Mac OS) as you drag the length of the document.
To select all the text on the page, choose Edit > Select All. In single page mode, all the text on the current page is selected. In Continuous or Continuous – facing mode, most of the text in the document is selected. When you release the mouse button, the selected text is highlighted. To deselect the text and start over, click anywhere outside the selected text.
The Select All command will not select all the text in the document. A workaround for this (Windows) is to use the Edit > Copy command. Choose Edit > Copy to copy the selected text to the clipboard.
2. To view the text, choose Window > Show Clipboard
In Windows 95, the Clipboard Viewer is not installed by default and you cannot use the Show Clipboard command until it is installed. To install the Clipboard Viewer, Choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs, and then click the Windows Setup tab. Double-click Accessories, check Clipboard Viewer, and click OK.

Board of Supervisors' closed session held today.]
SUP. YAROSLAVSKY, CHAIRMAN: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS' MEETING IS NOW IN SESSION. AND EVERYONE TO STAND FOR THE INVOCATION AND THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE. THE INVOCATION WILL BE LED BY DR. JANET BREGAR OF VILLAGE LUTHERAN CHURCH IN BRENTWOOD AND THE PLEDGE WILL BE LED BY EDWIN B. ALAS ABREGO, FORMER SERGEANT IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY. DR. BREGAR.
DR. JANET BREGAR: THESE ARE SOME WORDS FROM GEORGE WASHINGTON FROM HIS FAREWELL ADDRESS. "IT WILL BE WORTHY OF A FREE AND ENLIGHTENED AND AT NO DISTANT PERIOD A GREAT NATION TO GIVE TO MANKIND THE MAGNANIMOUS AND, TOO, NOVEL EXAMPLE OF A PEOPLE ALWAYS GUIDED BY AN EXULTED JUSTICE AND BENEVOLENCE. WHO CAN DOUBT THAT, IN THE COURSE OF TIME AND THINGS, THE FRUITS OF SUCH A PLAN WOULD REPAY RICHLY ANY TEMPORARY ADVANTAGE WHICH MIGHT BE LOST BY A STEADY ADHERENCE TO IT. CAN IT BE THAT PROVIDENCE IS NOT CONNECTED TO THE PERMANENT FELICITY OF A NATION WITH ITS VIRTUE?" THIS AFTERNOON, WE REFLECT, THEN, ABOUT THIS DOUBT, ARE WE NOT CONNECTED TO PROVIDENCE? IN A WORLD, IN A COUNTRY IN WHICH THERE ARE COMPETING RELIGIOUS CLAIMS, MARTIN LUTHER KING JR., EVEN IN THE MIDST OF RIOTING THAT EARLY CONSTITUTION, PRAYED AND BELIEVED THAT THERE IS A UNIVERSAL GOOD WILL. THAT UNIVERSAL GOOD WILL BINDS US ALL AND IS COMMON TO ALL HUMANITY. AND SO NOW I PRAY THAT EACH OF YOU SEIZE THE MOMENT TO FIND WITHIN YOURSELVES THE CONNECTION TO EXALTED JUSTICE AND BENEVOLENCE AND EACH DAY, IN YOUR WORK, TO REFLECT A PLAN THAT EMBRACES ALL OF HUMANITY AND BRINGS US CLOSER TO THE TRUTH THAT WE ALL ARE ONE FAMILY AND WE ARE BOUND TO ONE CODE OF CONDUCT, COMPASSION, JUSTICE, PEACE AND HAPPINESS. THANK YOU.
EDWIN B. ALAS ABREGO: PLEASE PLACE YOUR RIGHT-HAND OVER YOUR HEART AND JOIN ME IN THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE. [ PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE ]
SUP. YAROSLAVSKY, CHAIRMAN: WE WERE LED IN THE INVOCATION BY DR. JANET BREGAR, WHO IS THE PASTOR OF THE VILLAGE LUTHER CHURCH IN BRENTWOOD AND THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE SANTA MONICA BAY INTERFAITH COUNCIL, AS WELL AS ASSISTANT PROFESSOR AT CAL STATE FULLERTON IN COMPARATIVE RELIGION. DR. BREGAR IS AN INTERFAITH COMMUNITY ACTIVIST AND HAS MOST RECENTLY PARTICIPATED IN THE WORLD PARLIAMENT OF RELIGIONS IN BARCELONA, SPAIN, AS WELL AS INTERFAITH EVENTS NATIONALLY.

THEY ALSO SHARE A SPACE WITH CALTRANS BUT WE'RE GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THAT. BUT-- YEAH, CALTRANS NEEDS DIVINE INTERVENTION AND THEY WANT TO TAKE THE CHURCH, DON'T THEY? BUT WE'RE GOING TO STAND IN FRONT OF THAT TRACTOR. DR. BREGAR, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT VERY INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE THIS MORNING. [ APPLAUSE ]
