The PDF viewer is an MDI window just like the edit windows. This has the advantage that you can view your source and the PDF at the same time if you tile the windows.
The viewer itself consists of a tree with the topics and the actual PDF viewer.
The tree topics can be searched by right clicking on the tree. Choose 'Search' and enter a search text.
