Xpdf does that. Black on white. It starts each search from the previous one. It restarts a search at the top of the page you're on when you do things like select text, change the zoom factor, and so on. The jessie version was broken wrt some keystrokes but all is well in stretch. I don't think it handles passwords, nor certain font configurations like Chase credit card statements. Cheers, David.
