Searching for "pdf search" isn't finding anything significant.

"PDF drive" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25240373, 0 comments) just appears to be an ebook crawler over in the less-than-#FFFFFF-department if you get what I mean.

I also found a thread talking about searching PDFs for specific queries (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10154527) which appears to have generated some interesting results back when the thread was posted, in 2015.

Not seeing anything recent though. But on the subject of a search engine specifically for finding redacted content, I couldn't help but imagine the discussion...

"Hi, I would like to find a •••••••."

"You specifically want a •••••••?"

"Yes, literally."
