Hi,

I'm interested in how you would actually get the search result back.

If you're talking about using the FindText method, this simply returns a boolean, although the Acrobat app does indeed select the text that you were looking for.

How can you find the rectangle for that selected text? There seem to be lots of solutions to showing how to highlight specified regions, is there a way of finding the rectangle co-ords for the region that gets selected after calling FindText?
