Description shirish agarwal 2008-10-31 18:39:17 UTC
Please describe the problem:
There is problem with the wording evince uses after it has finished searching the whole document

Steps to reproduce:
These are the steps to reproduce the issue

a. Open any multi-page .pdf document in evince
b. Go to Edit > Find or use CTRL+F to open the find window
c. Give some search term which reflects multiple times throughout the document.
 

Actual results:
At the status, it would show something like
 '0 or some number finding on this page' which is just plain incorrect.

Expected results:
What it should be stating is
'0 or n number times the search term occured in the document'

Does this happen every time?
everytime

Sorry, Shirish, I don't quite get what this bug is about, can you please explain more? It indeed shows you the number of matches in the page, not in the document.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

Anyway, you didn't give enough feedback for the developers to fix this bug and/or fulfill the feature request.

Feel free to re-open this issue and provide more feedback if you think it worth it.
