I'm reading a lot of pdf articles in Adobe Acrobat Pro and highlighting specific sections.

Then I highlighted a few sentences using PDF-XChange Viewer and Adobe Reader with, and without enabling the copy annotation feature. Next, I ran your script on the annotated file. I found that only the empty annotated texts annotated using Adobe Reader were copied, but not those annotated with PDF-XChange Viewer. Which PDF readers can export highlighted text? Update Cancel. A d b y P D F f i l l e r I n c. Edit PDFs online on any desktop or mobile device. Change text, images and graphics in PDF documents online. E-sign, share and print PDFs in a few clicks. How do I copy pdf text with highlights to word and not just the text?

I would like to know if it is possible to extract just the text I highlighted from these pdf files?

Yes, it is possible, but there is a caveat: before you begin highlighting, you have to enable a feature called Copy Selected text into Highlight, Strikethrough, and Underline comment pop-ups. It's in the File Preferences Commenting menu.

Once you've checked that, highlight the text, and go to the Comment pane (top right corner). In the Comments List area, click the Settings button and click Create Comment Summary.

If you select the Comments only layout, it will generate a new PDF file with each highlight + it's time.
