Pdf Highlight Text Java
May 22, 2012 - Maybe the most disturbing thing about Docear is the lack of a proper PDF reader that creates comments, bookmarks and highlighted text that can be imported by Docear and that runs on all operating systems. Personally, I use Foxit Reader and create bookmarks to remember important statements but it. Oct 26, 2014 I need to know how to highlight specific word in pdf file like link below using java.
In short: I am looking for a program that can extract all the highlighted text from a PDF. If possible, free, works with Windows 7 SP1 x64 Ultimate and Acrobat XI Pro, and can process several PDF files at once. My use case: I highlighted some text in a PDF: I'm aware that we can that there is the option 'Copy selected text into Highlight, Strike-Out, and Underline comment pop-ups.' But I would prefer to keep highlighted text apart from comments. I am aware of but the, maybe because the feature has been modified since then (the article was published in early 2006) or because they assume that the 'Copy selected text into Highlight, Strike-Out, and Underline comment pop-ups.' Option is checked. I first tried the application that was hosted in sourceforge.

It is great, but I found one issue that the other than the highlighted text, it has some text appearing extra (leading and trailing parts of highlighted text). I have written a small app for this and hosted. I have added the following features in it:. Provision to copy old highlight texts to comment pop ups retroactively (that is you had not made the setting explained above before making the comment.).
Provision to copy highlight texts to comment pop ups for highlights made from a tablet. Provision to specify delimiters in the comment generator.
Single file processing and bulk processing. MY FAVORITE: Provision to split different colour highlights to different files. If anybody is still looking for this requirement, you may try it. Caveat: It is not free.
It is the result of 1 months hard work learning Java and PDFBox. So please don't visit the site thinking it is a free app. But if anyone wants to take the same path and develop from scratch, I can help with pointers, if you email me (Alex) at wowpdfextractor@gmail.com P.S. I have been a regular visitor of coding sites including stackexchange and stackoverflow till now but this is my first post here:).
