Answer 1

(NSArray *)searchResultOnPage:(NSUInteger)pageNr forSearchTerms:(NSString *)searchTerm returns an NSArray of MFTextItems. MFTextItem has a property called highlightPath that returns a CGPathRef. Is that what you are using?

If you need to get a CGRect from the highlightPath, you could use CGPathGetBoundingBox.

If the highlightPath is not accurate enough for you, you are going to have to be creative and come up with a solution on your own.
