Appendix A - Rectangle Commands
ExtractTextSkipThisWord
This command works similarly to the extracttext command, but it skips over any initial
Whitespace and skips over the first occurance of text in the run of text. If text is not present, the
entire run of text inside the rectangle is extracted. If text is present, then the text that comes after
text in the run of text inside the rectangle is extracted.
ExtractTextSkipCharacters
This command works similarly to the extracttext command, but it skips over any initial
Whitespace and then skips over number characters. If the text in the run is text
15.839996,826.880005 (this is text on the page) and the extract command is
extracttextskipcharacters 12 829 18 823 2, then the text is text on the page will be extracted,
because the first two characters were skipped.

is important.
ExtractOnlyIfThisTextNotInRect
