PDF Viewer with integrated search?

Harnisch March 26, 2018

I am searching for a way of searching in an embadded PDF-file while its open. Like the normal PDF Viewer in every browser [CTRL+ F].

Atlassian disabled using Ctrl + F in the PDF viewer, look in "batch.js":

_disableKeyboardShortcuts: function (e) {
                        if ((e.ctrlKey || e.metaKey) && !(this._mediaViewer.getConfig().embedded || this._mediaViewer.getConfig().contained)) {
                            switch (e.which) {
                            case keyboard.keys.F:
                            case keyboard.keys.G:
                                // disable search keyboard shortcut                                e.preventDefault();
                                break;
                            case keyboard.keys.P:
                                // disable print keyboard shortcut                                e.preventDefault();
                                break;
                            }

Seems as though the PDF macro only displays the PDF, no functions of searching within the displayed PDF within the macro:
