When I view a PDF in Safari on my iPad, how can I find a word in the text? Thanks.
iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 4.3.3, iOS 4.3.5 Safari 6533.18.5
I know how to find text "on this page" when viewing a webpage. But I don't see any magnifying glass icon to find text in a PDF.

There should be a magnifying glass icon top right corner of the PDF file window. Tap that once then enter the word you're searching for.
And here's a tip. You can search Safari website pages by tapping once in the search field top right corner of the Safari window. From the drop down menu tap, "On This Page".
The standard Safari "On this page" textfield also works with PDF documents, not only with simple Web pages. (Just tested this under iOS 5.1.1.)
