Answer
When performing an Advanced Search on a Full Text Index in Foxit PDF Editor, users may encounter a limitation where only up to 500 documents are returned in the search results. This occurs because the default maximum number of results is capped at 500.
To increase the number of search results returned for a Full Text Index, users can modify the maximum document limit in the preferences. Follow the steps below to adjust the configuration:
1. Open Preferences:
- Launch Foxit PDF Editor.
- Navigate to File > Preferences.
2. Access the Search Settings:
- In the Preferences dialog, locate and select the Search tab from the left-hand menu.
3. Adjust Maximum Results:
- Find the setting labeled Maximum number of documents returned in Results.
- By default, this value is set to 500.
- Increase the value to the desired limit. The allowable range is between 1 and 10,000.
4. Save Changes:
- Click OK to save the changes and close the Preferences dialog.
5. Perform the Search:
- Re-run the Advanced Search on the Full Text Index. The updated settings will now allow the specified number of results to display.
Increasing the maximum result limit may impact the performance of the search operation, especially when dealing with extremely large Full Text Indexes. Ensure that your system has adequate resources (CPU, RAM) to handle the increased workload.
