IIIF Universal Viewer - Searchable PDF
For searchable PDFs would like the viewer to have similar features as the viewer deployed by the British Library- http://access.bl.uk/item/viewer/ark:/81055/vdc_00000004216E#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0&xywh=-2194%2C-163%2C6568%2C3244
Would like the search bar for be available and indication where the search word if located in the PDF
Download options would be driven by Entity Type

Hi Daniel:
The Wellcome Library may be a better example -
https://wellcomelibrary.org/item/b20417081#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0&z=-1.0173%2C-0.0828%2C3.0346%2C1.6564
I do think that the BL example is a PDF as well -- it is just they only allow you to download jpg images of the pages -- i am not sure you can put an OCR later ono a JPG

Hi Dave,
Thank you for the suggestion. The British Library example is of JPGs, have you come across an example with PDF search?
Thank you,
Daniel
