Hi,

Converting a pdf file to a swf using the pdf2swf version 0.6.3 allows
one to search within the generated swfs using the  ActionScript
function MovieClip.getTextSnapshot(). This function will allow you to
find all occurences of a word/text on a page by drawing a highlight
box around the word/text.

However if you were to use version 0.7.0 to generate the swf and then
try using textsnapshot, it
will find the locations (as in the index, within the entire text
block, of the first character) but it will not highlight the bounding
box.

One key difference in between the two swfs is the file size, some of
the swfs generated using version 0.6.3 are at least three times as the
ones generated using version 0.7.0 even after using the -z option to
compress the swf.

I looked at the changelog but did not find any relevant information.

What changed from version 0.6.3 to 0.7.0 that is causing this ?

Thanks
Ajay
