I would like to develop a plugin with functionality similar to the Acrobat snapshot tool. I'd like to provide a method for the user to select a rectangular region, and capture an image of that region to the clipboard, which is exactly what the snapshot tool does (I also want to add some features not provided by the snapshot tool once this is working). I've reviewed the SDK samples, and I'm not sure how to get started. Is this a special case of a Selection Server? Which API methods allow me to get the image of the rectangular selection, rather than iterating through PDF elements contained within? Thanks!
