I have a Joomla component that does that. ; It's called PDF Indexer.  It creates a searchable text file for the pdf.  When you find it in the search results it tells you which pdf it's in along with a link to open the pdf.

But this client wants the search results to take you to the location of the keyword in the pdf.

Fixing
