Accents, capital letters as well as words with no proper meaning (the, that, of, a, etc.) will not be taken into account. The engine uses stemming search (horse equals horses, documentation equals documents and vice versa). Words beginning with a capital letter will be considered as proper nouns.
The terms suggested to refine your search are important words from the first documents resulting from your search.
The link "Refine your search from this document" enables you to identify the most relevant documents and launch a new search taking them into account.
If the terms you use for your search include words in a foreign language, select this language to enable a better lexical analysis of your demand, hence better results.
