Detailed Description

The TextRange class represents a contiguous range of text on a PDF page. It may be the result of a text search, or simply a couple of highlighted or underlined words.

Each text range contains a few pieces of information:

page: the number of the page this piece of text is on; position: the start position (text offset); length: the length.

You are able to retrieve further information about the text range, such as its coordinates, the text itself, as well as characters before and after.

Member Function Documentation

static TextRange* pdftron::PDF::TextRange::CreateInternal ( ptrdiff_t  impl )

static

void pdftron::PDF::TextRange::Destroy

(

)

Frees the native memory of the object.

ptrdiff_t pdftron::PDF::TextRange::GetHandleInternal

(

)

int pdftron::PDF::TextRange::GetPageNumber

(

)

const

Get the page number of the text range.

std::vector<QuadPoint> pdftron::PDF::TextRange::GetQuads

(

)

const

Get the corresponding quadrangles of the text range.

Returns

the number of the resulting quadrangles. Each quadrangle has eight doubles (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4) denoting the four vertices in counter-clockwise order.

Note

the 'quads' array is owned by the current TextRange and does not need to be explicitly released. Since a highlight may correspond to multiple quadrangles, e.g., when it crosses a line, the number of resulting quadrangles may be larger than 1.

int pdftron::PDF::TextRange::GetQuads

(

const double *&

quads

)

const

UString pdftron::PDF::TextRange::GetText

(

)

const

Get the Unicode string content of the text range.

Returns

the text within the range

UString pdftron::PDF::TextRange::GetTextAfter

(

int

count

)

const

Get the Unicode string content immediately after the text range.

Parameters

count

the number of characters to retrieve before the text range

Returns

the text after the range

UString pdftron::PDF::TextRange::GetTextBefore

(

int

count

)

const

Get the Unicode string content immediately before the text range.

Parameters

count

the number of characters to retrieve before the text range

Returns

the text before the range

TextRange& pdftron::PDF::TextRange::operator=

(

const TextRange &

tr

)

Assignment operator.
