Thanks to all the advice from readers. Lots of folks said I could do what I wanted with Adobe Reader 6.0. I can’t. I don’t know why. But I did go to the Mac store and buy Readiris 9.0 and it seems to do everything I wanted and more. Though I have to read the instructions a bit more because some graphics and column heavy docs are a bit problematic.

Anyway, thanks to everyone for the help. Now if someone could explain why searching my harddrive by content (i.e. trying to find docs with specific words in them) just doesn’t work on OSX….
