Because in most cases, the file isn't being offered to download, it is being
offered for you to open the file and if you want a copy of the file, you
then Save the opened copy.

Hello,
I have a lot of books in PDF format and searching within these files
with Adobe reader goes terribly slow. Indexing seems to be the solution,
but the indexers I find don’t seem to be connected to a viewer that
jumps to the corresponding offset in the pdf file. What is the best
solution?

You can't reformat PDFs that way: it was expressly designed NOT to do
that -- it's basically a fixed, end-of-line format. If you have the
original source document, reflow it and regenerate the PDF. There *is* a
limited amount of reformatting available if the PDF has been created to
permit it (called reflowing) but it's rare.

So I want less characters on a page, so in stead of 60 rows with 80 chars, I
want 30 rows with 40 chars.
I installed PDFill (free ware) but it's not clear how to accomplish what I

I am involved in a project which requires to store some text
(programmatically) in PDF documents. I guess my first step would be to
look at how Adobe does it. I was surprised to see that the text being
discovered by the Adobe OCR phase is stored in a fashion in the PDF
file, while the text discovered by another OCR company is stored
