Is there a way to create searchable PDFs in CrossOver Mac?
I have tried using both CUPS and PDFwriter, but the resulting output is printable, but not searchable using either Adobe Reader or Preview.

Is there a way to create searchable PDFs in CrossOver Mac?

Not that I'm aware of. The searchability usually comes from the PDF generator itself (not Crossover) or the viewer application.
When I use either CUPS or PDFwriter directly from the Mac OS (Snow Leopard), the resulting PDFs are searchable, but when I use them through CrossOver, the PDFs are not searchable. Any thoughts as to why?
Strange indeed. I reproduced what you're saying and will file a bug about this, but I don't have any workarounds at this time.
Has a solution to this problem via the bug report been found yet?
