A method and an apparatus search for documents in a data memory. A search query and a set of documents stored in the data memory are prescribed. For each document in the set of documents a respective computer-evaluatable description of the document is generated. The document is broken down into document portions. For each document portion at least one result of deciphering of the document portion is ascertained, wherein for at least one document portion a plurality of deciphering results are ascertained and stored. For each document in the set of documents a measure of the match between the document and the search query is calculated. For calculating the measure of match between a document and the search query, a degree of match is calculated for each stored possible deciphering result. The calculated degrees of match are taken as a basis for selecting at least one document in the set.
