Sure you are BB, go back and reread what you wrote way back when I introduced this tool to this thread.

Not at all, its trivial to find where a line of text matches are particular page since any modern text display tool, including DJVU and PDF/A displays include a “find” option to allow you to search on text.

Again, BB, the problem is that you live in a BB-centric world where you believe that the BB-approach is the “only way to fly.”

Well, again, PG could start by fixing their on-going paragraph formatting problems.  That ain’t exactly a high-tech problem!
