Hi,

 

I am trying to know if telerik offers to extract the selected text and its coordinates using JQuery PDFViewer control?

If yes, anyone please share the examples?

Hi Khalid,

It appears that there is no active license for your account. Which inevitably limits our support. I would personally recommend looking through our available Support Plans in this regard:

Regardless, please allow me to still cover the inquiry you have raised. At this stage, there is no  built-in mechanism for directly extracting the selected text using the PDFViewer.

A possible recommendation here would be to load an arbitrary document and based on some arbitrary logic, send out the PDF file to the server-side. There you can decompose the document. In order to gather the textual fields which fall within the "selected" category.

However, this would require a dedicated custom implementation. We do not have a readily available example for tackling this scenario.

Kind Regards,
Alexander
