Wow, funny this comes up. Actually this is something I'm trying really hard to implement at the moment ;-)

The printed objects are TextPositions > which have the represented text and the position on the page as attribues. This is exactly the way I went as well - see my project's code at [1]. The problem is to combine the text fragments in the right way (and sum up related positions) to find the strings you want to hightlight. I think my code might be a good point to get started. It's working for a lot of cases: Of course, there are lots where it doesn't highlight anything or highlights too much. Maybe someone would be interested to make some comments? HTH!
