Hi Furkan,

  First, are you processing PDFs or actual image files?  If PDFs, be
careful about blacking out images because there may be some record of the
underlying text in the file, and while a user might not be able to see the
sensitive information, that information may be available for inquiring
minds.

  If PDFs, are these PDFs that are image-only or is there underlying
electronic text.  If image-only, you could use the hocr output from
tesseract, which reports coordinates in an html output file.

  Now, if there is underlying text, we aren't currently extracting text
positions from PDFs...although we could.

@Eric Pugh <[email protected]>, recommendations?

  Cheers,

                      Tim
