Figure 10 and 11 show the difference between how the human eyes sees text on the 

page, and how ARTS PDF Split Pro™ sees it. In figure 11, the red text is what ARTS PDF 
Split Pro™ sees, and the text behind in and in figure 10 is how it appears to the user on 

the page.   
  

  

To view text runs, select ‘Show Run Start’ from the ARTS PDF Split Pro™ Assistant 
menu, or click on the close button located on the ARTS PDF Split Pro™ Assistant toolbar.

ARTS PDF Split Pro™ Assistant allows the user to see where the start of each text run 
starts on the page. A small red cross represents the start of each text run. This can be 

seen in the diagram below (displaying text runs in ARTS PDF Split Pro™ Assistant).

Within a PDF file, text is drawn by moving to a specific location on the page and drawing 
a line of text, which is formally known as a run of text.  What appears to be one line of 

text can actually be made of a number of runs of text put together.  
  

In ARTS PDF Split Pro™ Assistant, if a line of text begins inside a rectangle that you 
have created on your screen then the entire run of text is considered inside that 

rectangle. The rectangle that has been drawn in figure 13 contains two runs of text
