You are describing two different features. One is called OCR zones, the 
other is layout analysis (example: https://github.com/tabulapdf/tabula). 
I've seen forks of Mayan with this feature added as a commercial plugin but 
none have donated the code to be added to the core version I develop. These 
features are very complex, costly and located in a patent minefield 
(http://patents.justia.com/patents-by-us-classification/382/321). Without 
external sponsorship I'm not able to implement these.
