So I'm looking for a service I can run that can search the internal contents of multiple PDFs (multiple 1000+ page reference manuals) for a a phrase/word, similar to Adobe acrobats advance search function.

Bonus points of I can control the scope of which documents it searches through through some sort of interface.
