Hi,

I am developing an app which highlights/selects a word when user holds tap on the word and translates selected word. It is working perfectly with HTML pages. However, my app also supports pdf documents. The problem is that text doesn't get selected when viewing PDF's, instead the zoom magnifier is shown.

By the way, I am using "Javascript + tap detecting window" to detect taps and selected text from UIWebView.

Is there anyway to make text selections possible in PDF? Or is there any way to convert PDF to HTML?

Thanks
