Hi,

We would like to use the activeX control to display pdf files and let the user extract contents from it. So we need the functionality to get more details from the selection (fromX/fromY toX/toY) and also to set a selection (e.g. to show him his last selection)

Is this possible with the activeX control?
We also have seen the dll version, but the rendering for text is not so nice using the dll.

thanks,
Sven

Hi, To select text in PDF files, you need to set current tool to "Select Text Tool".However, you could not set a selection or get more details from the selection in ActiveX 2.0. To do that ,you may need a customizing ActiveX Version.To customize ActiveX 2.0, please contact sales@foxitsoftware.com
