#5 Search feature
The viewer should support searching. Maybe we could integrate a Search action that will be registered in the coolbar (once this is implemented) and additionally in the simple navigator.
The simple navigator should then show "Next hit" and "Previous hit" buttons and it should show options like a "wrap search"-checkbox, a "ignore case"-checkbox & similar.
The viewer should highlight the matches e.g. with a yellow background (which should be configurable).
For this feature, we need additional API in the pdf-renderer in order to access the text contents (plain text with associated coordinates).
I opened a feature request:

Hi i am Prakash...
As u told Mr. macro Schulz.. i am totaly agree with u.I am also using this pdf-rendere for my application and i have found no API for highlighting the particular text on PDF page.I think... when the class PdfRenderer.java
renders the pdf and then creates its image then there will be some option for highlighting... dont know exactly.If u know abt how to Highlight plz tell me.
