Rather "document (text)" with "document" as ruby base and "text"
as ruby text?

\newcommand*{\ruby}[2]{#1 (#2)}
or
\newcommand*{\ruby}[2]{%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@{}}%
text\\%
document\\%
\end{tabular}%
}
(But searching remains problematic.)
or with ActualText:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{accsupp}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\newcommand*{\rubystack}[2]{%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@{}}%
{#1}\\%
{#2}\\%
\end{tabular}%
}
\newcommand*{\ruby}[2]{%
\mbox{%
\rubystack{%
\phantom{#2}%
}{%
#1%
}%
\BeginAccSupp{method=pdfstringdef,ActualText={ (#2)},}%
% \BeginAccSupp{method=plain,ActualText={}}% supresses ruby text
\llap{%
\rubystack{%
#2%
}{%
\phantom{#1}%
}%
}%
\EndAccSupp{}%
}%
}
\begin{document}
This is a \ruby{document}{text} using ruby markup.
\end{document}
Yours sincerely
