Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0
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.
2. Choose Edit > Copy to copy the selected text to the clipboard.
3. 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.

I PRAY THESE WORDS AND MY PRESENCE HERE ARE PLEASING TO YOU. THOUGH THE LAWS OF MAN ARE NOW DEMANDING THAT IN GOVERNANCE OF EARTHLY MATTERS WE INVOKE SOME MAGICAL, MYSTICAL, INOFFENSIVE BEING. I CANNOT DO THAT. RATHER THAN OBEY MAN, I'VE CHOSEN TO OBEY YOU GOD, AND IN DOING SO, I'M INVOKING YOUR NAME, THE NAME OF THE ONE TRUE GOD, FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT, OUR CREATOR, OUR REDEEMER, OUR SANCTIFIER AND ASK YOU TO BE PRESENT WITH US TODAY.

LORD, HELP US BE WISE. ON BEHALF OF THE MEN AND WOMEN YOU HAVE RAISED UP TO SERVE AS LEADERS IN THIS GREAT COUNTRY, OF THIS STATE, AND HERE IN THIS COUNTY, MAKE THEM WISE TO YOU, O LORD, TO YOUR PRESENCE, TO YOUR POWER, AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY, TO YOUR LOVE. GRANT ALSO YOUR WISDOM, LORD, TO THESE LEADERS, WHOM YOU HAVE GIVEN THE AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITY TO GOVERN OUR WAY OF LIFE, THAT IN ALL DECISIONS THEY MAKE TODAY, THEY ARE MINDFUL OF THE AWESOME RESPONSIBILITY THEY HAVE TO THE PEOPLE THEY REPRESENT AND TO YOU, AND ON BEHALF OF THE LEADERS IN THIS ROOM, I WANT TO THANK YOU, LORD, THANK YOU FOR GIVING THESE MEN AND WOMEN SUCH AN HONOR AND PRIVILEGE TO USE THEIR GIFTS, ESPECIALLY THEIR GIFT OF LEADERSHIP IN THE MANNER YOU HAVE CALLED UPON THEM TO SERVE. BLESS THEM, LORD, BLESS THEIR HUSBANDS, THEIR WIVES, THEIR SONS AND DAUGHTERS, BLESS THEM IN THEIR HOMES, BLESS THEM IN THEIR WORK, BLESS THEM IN THEIR LEADERSHIP AND BLESS THEM IN THEIR LOVE FOR YOU AND FOR EACH OTHER. I LIFT THEM UP TO YOU, O LORD. AND FINALLY, LORD, THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY TO LIFT YOU UP, TO REMIND ALL WHO ARE TRULY LISTENING OF THIS TRUTH, GOD IS GOD, AND WE'RE NOT, NOW, OR EVER WILL BE, AND WITH THAT IN MIND, KEEP US HUMBLE, LORD, ALWAYS OPEN TO YOUR LEADING IN OUR LIVES, AND BECAUSE YOU TELL US IN FIRST TIMOTHY CHAPTER 2 THAT THERE'S ONLY ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MAN, AND THAT MEDIATOR IS JESUS CHRIST, I PRAY THIS TO YOU IN HIS NAME. AMEN.
