Does anyone know how to search a pdf with Preview using multiple terms?

Example: I searched for battle fatigue, and it showed me every result containing battle (including things like battlefield) and every result containing fatigue. I'm need it to find a specific phrase, not every instance of every word.

Putting the phrase in quotes returns nothing, as does using + between words.

Ideas?
 
Are you sure the phrase is in there? For me, putting the phrase in quotes always works :confused:
 
Just tried quotes again, it worked. Apparently, it didn't like my first phrase.
