Hi! We could do this for certain type of documents. But for PDF files, I think we should use a new feature provided by PDFBox, PdfHighlighter. This is actually using an Acrobat feature described here : http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/pdf/HighlightFileFormat.pdf
When the user selects the link "View cache" or "View highlight", we could generate the XML highlight file and use it to highlight the hits directly inside the PDF. That's even better than Google cache... We could otherwise use Yahoo solution (launch the search engine inside Acrobat reader - http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/PDFOpenParameters.pdf / search parameters). I know these are only solutions for PDFs but that's the format I'm working on right now and I think its use is widespread so it might be useful to implement these features.
