The command okular --find ${search_string} ${filename}
is used to search for a specific text string within a PDF file using the Okular document viewer.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
okular
: This is the name of the command-line program used to launch the Okular document viewer.--find
: This option tells Okular to perform a search within the specified PDF file.${search_string}
: This is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual text string you want to search for within the PDF file.${filename}
: This is another placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path or name of the PDF file you want to search within.
To use this command, you need to replace ${search_string}
with the text you want to find and ${filename}
with the path or name of the PDF file you want to search within. For example, if you want to search for the word "example" within a file named "document.pdf", the command would be: okular --find example document.pdf
.
When running this command, Okular will open the specified PDF file and search for the given text string within the document. If the text is found, Okular will highlight all occurrences of the string and provide navigation options to move between them.
