[xep-support] Creating embedded index in PDF for faster searching?

Hi

I am creating quite large PDF files that users frequently search within,
and the searches are relatively slow.

I am using the ENABLE_ACCESSIBILITY in xep.xml to created tagged PDF.

If I load these into Acrobat and then use Advanced > Document
Processing > Manage Embedded Index > Create Index, then the result
is a MUCH faster search.

However, I would rather generate these in the pipeline with XEP (or
an additional pass with some other command line tool if anyone knows
of one).

I couldn't find anything in the manual about this, or any obvious
option.
