Hi Amelie,

// This is a partly way in Delphi . . .

   QP := TDebenuPDFLibrary1312.Create;
   try
//     Here the activation with your user-/testkey is needed...
       okay := QP.LoadFromFile(FName, '');
       lerrc := QP.LastErrorCode;

       If ( QP.EncryptionStatus > 0 ) Then
          QP.Decrypt;

       sl := TStringList.Create;
       pagetext := '';

       for i := 1 to QP.PageCount Do
       begin
          QP.SelectPage(i);
          QP.CombineContentStreams;
          sl.Text := QP.GetPageText(3); // you can get it into a stringlist or ...
          pagetext := QP.GetPageText(3); // you can get it into a string ...

//        . . .
//        now you're able to search inside your searchstrings (in Delphi with pos-syntax) ...
