I am trying to work on searching a word on the pdf which is rendered through the drawLayer
. Can any one suggest how I should find a word on a pdf and the position (co-ordinates) of the word on the page? Is there any free framework to import or any libraries available? After spending more time with google I found some samples to search a word on pdf; those are fastsamplepdf from github, random ideas
MY WORK
I seen fastsample pdf code; I understood only the parsing of the pdf to text using
+(MFDocumentManager *)documentManagerWithFilePath:
(NSString *)filePath;
and
-(NSString *)wholeTextForPage:
(NSUInteger)pageNr withProfile:(MFProfile *)p;
But I can't find how they are highlighted. Please can any one help me out with this. Please post some suggestions. Thank you.
Open your PDF in Acrobat. Click and drag the cursor to select the area of text you want to highlight. A small toolbox will appear above your text. Select the highlighter tool icon and it will automatically highlight your selected text.
Once your file is open in Preview, you can easily highlight text by selecting the highlight tool from the toolbar. You can choose to highlight in different colors to help guide your reading. You can also use notes to annotate PDFs in Preview.
