Over one million members, it's official! - May 23, 2005

Today at 1,001,625, the membership of Tek-Tips has passed the 1,000,000 mark.

The PDFcommander™ forum will be available to all members of Tek-Tips and to anyone who wishes to join the world's largest and fastest growing independant IT community.

Context View and Aggregrated Context View added - May 5, 2005

PDFcommander™ will advise you how many webpages were found matching your search criteria, using either a PDFcommander™ Site Search or Google® Advanced Search.

Having decided how many pages you wish to utilise, (maximum 900 with Google® Advanced Search), the URLs and, if found by PDFcommander™ Site Search, page titles, become available on screen.

For a Context View select a single URL.

For a Aggregated Context View select as many URLs as you wish to include using CTRL+left click or SHIFT+left click.

Select 'View as Context View' or 'View as Aggregated Context View' from the main or right click menu

This will isolate and display only those paragraphs in the selected webpages containing the search words and/or phrase which will be highlighted for ease of identification.

This enables you to determine the relevance of any number of webpages without having to read the entire pages individually before incorporating them into your PDF.

The URL and page title for each page is included above the page's individual Context View and clicking on the link will take you to the page.

Should you wish to view the entire individual webpage, from the right click or main menu, select 'View as Webpage'
