The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________
I have checked with my set of documentation, and the items should be the same. At a first try, by listing the MenuItems using the app.listMenuItems() method from the Acrobat 6 console, using the "fancy display" example, nothing appears at al. However, doing a search and having a search result displayed lead to the following results:
+-Find +-SearchSubmenu +-FindAgainDoc +-FindAgain +-FindPrevious +-FindPreviousDoc +-endFindGroup
This information is also present in the Core API Reference (downloadable from Adobe's website after registering for a "web account").
On the other hand, the Search API lists the old commands. This could mean that the Search API is for the legacy search.
<rant> Of course, it would have nice if such things were communicated... </rant>
Hope, this can help.

I have found an anomaly in Acrobat 6.0.1 which may be of interest to readers.
In an Acrobat PDF file, a link or bookmark can have an action "EXECUTE MENU ITEM".
The menu item to be executed is identified by an MENU ITEM NAME stored in the
PDF file.
If the PDF file was created with Acrobat 5.05, then the MENU ITEM NAMES for
search operations are as follows:
Acrobat 505 menu name Acrobat 6.0.1 compatible ?
start new search AcroSrch:Query yes go to next search hit AcroSrch:NextHit no go to prev search hit AcroSrch:PrevHit no see search results AcroSrch:Results no
If the PDF file is viewed with Acrobat 6.0.1, then only one of the above
actions will work. The others will not work.
I am aware that Acrobat 6 uses new MENU ITEM NAMES for the search actions.
However, I believe that the old names should ALSO be supported to ensure
compatibility with legacy documents. It seems strange that one of the
above is supported, but the others are not.
