Quickly finding search terms

[JB63 0]

New to Evernote. Search function does a great job of picking up the search term in documents, but some are located in very remote portions of lengthy documents. Is there a way to quickly jump from one located search term to another without scrolling through each document in which there was a hit?

 

Also, is there a way to limit my search to notebook titles or tags? 

 

Thanks.

There is no way to more easily locate a search term in an attached document. You would have to actually open the attachment and perform a separate search. So if it is a Word document you'd need to open it in Word and search for your term, likewise with a PDF.

 

You cannot search for notebooks only for notes. You can limit your search to a particular notbook or notebooks:

notebook:notebook name

You can limit your search to the title of notes:

intitle:query

You can limit to particular tags:

tag:tagname

 

You can combine any of these

notebook:notebook name intitle:query tag:tagname

 

You can exclude, so search note titles in all notebooks, excluding everything tagged with: tag A

-tag:"tag A" intitle:query
