Hi, Aravind,

RadPdfViewer from the Telerik UI for WinForms suite offers a similar convenient API for managing the selection a pdf file. Please have a look at the following help article:

https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/pdfviewer/features/text/text-selection

The RadPdfViewer.Document.Selection.GetSelectedText() method returns the currently stored selected text.  

        private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            RadMessageBox.Show(this.radPdfViewer1.Document.Selection.GetSelectedText());
        }

 

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
