Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I am new to this Acrobat Java script, but i will understand this is a function that will extract the word coordinates. But i don't know how to use the java script in acrobat.

So can you please explain briefly regarding this or can you point me where can I learn the acrobat java script.

Thank you very much.

Balaji
