Hello - I'm looking for a standalone search app that can search for text strings that are contained within pdf files - WITHOUT first opening the file. Adobe Reader can do this, but it's enormous - like using an atom bomb to kill a fly.

The app must be able to search independently of indexes created by Spotlight (as I do not maintain Spotlight on ANY of my computers - I have reasons for doing so). There are other apps that can search for text within text (or other) files. One that comes to mind is 'EasyFind'. But it can't find text that is contained within a pdf file.
What I will use this for: I have a folder containing hundreds of pdf files, and would like to search for text strings that exist in those files, without having to open each file individually. I want to point my search engine at the folder, type in a text string, and then have it identify those file(s) that contain the string. The text I'll be searching for is 'text' within the files - not images, etc. When a file is opened, I can copy the text out 'as text'. But I have to find the files first! Anything out there (other than Acrobat Reader) that can do this? Click to expand.That was going to be my recommendation to you as well.
I personally use DevonThink Pro Office (DTPO). But I use it as a personal database and the heart of my 'paperless office'. The lighter DT Personal should handle your needs. Off on a tangent (just in case any readers have any interest in this area). DTPO combined with a Fujitsu ScanSnap is an unbelievable combination. Now, whenever paper comes into the house.

It is either:. Scanned/shredded. Just shredded. Recycled The only remaining category of paper that we keep is official documentation such as birth certificate, real estate titles. Usually things with an official original seal.
Getting rid of the paper is freeing. I do not think it is long term fesible without a full duplex sheet scanner and a powerful database. This combination is incredible. I am am curious why you do not want to use spotlight indexing.
I am wondering if there is some vulnerability or something that I am not aware of.
