I'm trying to select and highlight certain text in the PDF. Here's my sample code. I want to change the color of the highlighted text. Something similar to what the Highlight Text tool does in acrobat....

I would recommend that you look at creating Highlight annotations instead.

I'm not really sure what you mean by Highlight annotation? I know how to create regular annotations, but those are not exactly what my purpose. Can you point me to a sample code? Something like this...

Look at the documentation for the PDPageAddNewAnnot() API. You will see that the third parameter is the type of annotation. Consult ISO 32000-1:2008, 12.5 on Annotations.

Thanks, I found the code, but seems like Highlights not working. I saw one other user mentioned this. Not sure how to solve it. When I use Square, it creates a red box around my selection but when I...

The Markup annotation requires a QuadPoints key. See 12.5.6.10.

Thanks a lot for the answer. I look at the document, and still not sure where to put the QuadPoints.In this code segment, boundingRect gives those 4 corner points right? Or is there some other API...

You will have to set these separately using the Cos layer (CosNewArray, CosNewFixed, CosArrayPut, CosDictPut are your main routines). Pay close attention to the definition of QuadPoints, it is not just...

Thanks for the response. But the method is calling before opening the document in an IE. So I cant check that AVDocIfExternal or not. Is there any other method, where can I find Acrobat is in IE or...

I don't imagine Acrobat provides a method. Adobe don't expect you to do anything in Plugin initialisation except set up callbacks anyway. But you could try GetModuleFileName and do your own tests on...

Is this for a server process? (iTextSharp is NOT a language! And it is not an Adobe product)

Thinks to think about 1. You are creating an annot in a CosObj. To add this to a page you'd use PDPageAnnAnnot. PDPageAddNewAnnot creates the CosObj itself.2. There may be other required keys in an...

I guess I'm almost there, but getting an error saying invalid annotation object. Something wrong in the PDAnnotNotifyDidChange? Does that key suppose to be something else? CosObj cosDict =...

1. I don't see where you put the annot into the current page.2. The atom on PDAnnotNotifyDidChange is still wrong, but will not cause an error (Highlight is a value, not a key).3. Did you check if...

is there a Cos equivalent of PDPageAddAnnot(pdPage, -2, pdAnnot)?For highlights there's only Subtype and QuadPoints as required in ISO 32000-1:2008, 12.5 on Annotations. I'm not sure whether there's...

You missed a required entry, because table 164 also applies. It makes no sense for Rect to be required as well as QuadPoints, but that is the rule. You can either add your Cos obj using the Cos API...
