I've long since known that if I type in multiple words in the search box in Preview, I will get results for both words individually. I used to be able to just enclose the phrase in quotation marks to search for it.

Until I upgraded to Mountain Lion. Now, when I put quotes around the phrase, I get no results. I've tried testing this by searching for phrases that I already know are in the document. I'm fairly certain that Preview is now including the quote-marks themselves in the search. I'm fairly annoyed at Apple for changing this, since it was working perfectly fine before, and now I have no idea whatsoever on how to search for exact phrases. I don't really want to switch to Adobe Acrobat Reader, since Preview is just fine in every other department.
