PDF Content Search

PDF Content Search: Find any amount, any IBAN, any word – now in your emails too.

You have hundreds of scanned documents and thousands of emails. But when you need to find something, you have to open each file one by one. Because scanned PDFs are just images to your Mac – and Apple Mail doesn't search attachments.

PDF Content Search changes that.

Select a folder. The app automatically recognizes text in all your documents (OCR) and makes them searchable. From now on, you'll find everything: amounts, IBAN numbers, names, contract numbers – in seconds instead of hours.

NEW: Search Apple Mail

• Subjects, body text, and the contents of attachments (PDF, images, Office) become searchable.
• Open attachments directly, reveal any mail in the Finder with a single keystroke.

What the app can also do:

• Full-text search in scanned PDFs, images, and text files
• Office documents (Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Word, Excel)
• Date range filter: Find documents from specific time periods
• Fuzzy search: Finds matches even with typos or special characters
• Partial word search: Find long compound words by typing just a part

Easy to use:

1. Select a folder (or enable Apple Mail)
2. Wait for the analysis to complete
3. Search – done

No cloud uploads for your PDFs. No registration. Everything stays on your Mac.

AI integration and networking:

Connect PDF Content Search to Claude Desktop and ask questions about your archive directly in chat. Other Macs on your network can also use the search index — perfect for "one Mac indexes, everyone searches".

Bonus: Use the iOS app "PDF.Scanner." to scan and sync on the go.
