    Default get offset rectangle co-ordinates of highlighted text

    Dear Friends of Acrobat,
    I have a script that gets a text from a database query and finds that text in my pdf file- where it gets highlighted.
    I need to get the offset rectangle co-ordinates of that highlighted text so i can make a link there.
    So how to get the 4 coordinate positions of a highlighted or selected text?
    or how to get the beginning word's position or offset?

    Many thanks for any assistance you may give. Markandeya
