The title and content filters do not have any intelligent logic behind them. They simply return documents where the filter strings appears in the title, or content, case insensitive. The full text search on the top has much more intelligent searching logic, including boolean expresssions, see https://paperless-ng.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage_overview.html#searching. If multiple words are entered there, it searches for documents containing all of them by default. I'm working on better integrating the search results in the main application, so that you'll eventually be able to also use filtering and bulk editing on its results as well. |
