(Disclaimer: I am the developer of the Acrobat Add-on: nmcHighlighter for Acrobat). Here is a free and easy to use solution - an Acrobat Add-on written in JavaScript. So please don't visit the site thinking it is a free app.īut if anyone wants to take the same path and develop from scratch, I can help with pointers, if you email me (Alex) at I have been a regular visitor of coding sites including stackexchange and stackoverflow till now but this is my first post here :) It is the result of 1 months hard work learning Java and PDFBox. If anybody is still looking for this requirement, you may try it.Ĭaveat: It is not free.

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 first tried the application that was hosted in sourceforge.
