? selecting text in a pdf page

Hm,

I tried everything I could think of, plus looked in the Acrobat dictionary -
to no avail.

Is it at all possible to use applescript to select / get text from an open
pdf page?

I just wanted to rename that pdf filename using the selected text (and
making sure its less than, say, 127 chars) - adapting a neat script that
does this for Tex-Edit (OK, I know its no comparison ;-)

Tx for any help,


Mike
