[karthikS]

Dear Friends,

How can I get the relevant text (document text)?  Please see my below screenshot:

My code:

var doc = app.activeDocument;

var pdfComments = doc.pdfComments.everyItem().getElements(); 

var pdfCommentsLength = pdfComments.length; 

    for (var n=0; n<pdfCommentsLength; n++ ){

        var pdfCommentsDoc = pdfComments.commentContent; //Here with i got comment text (bold);

         //Also, i need to get the relevant text??? HOW!

            }

This is possible??

Here with, i have checked data browser in the relevant properties is not there. Please suggest friends.

Thanks,

SK

Hi Karthik,

This is already discussed in another thread with some thorough investigation on the matter and the results so far seem to point that the there is no way to access the selected text via scripting atleast. Have a look at the discussion at the following link
