It seems that you pass an XML document to the reader defining where you want
highlighting.

        Correct.


However I then need to know the offset on the page of where I want
to highlight (offset is a count either in characters or words).

        Correct.


So - is iText a good way to extract just the text of a page so that we
can use it to calculate the offsets?

        No.

        Look at PdfBox or Multivalent.
