When I search for a term like "formation water", preview returns everything starting with formation and not the term "formation water". How can I search for a phrase in Preview?
Just like you would with a Google search, use the double quotes operator to tell Preview the result must be an exact match.
In your case, for example, typing "formation water"
should yield the desired result.
formation water
returns every page that contain both the wordsformation
andwater
, regardless of how they are scattered around the page. – epimorphic Nov 9 '14 at 0:49
