Extracting Text from a particular region in PDF

Hi,

I want to extract text from a particular section in the PDF. How to I
identify the Rectangle for that region using the title of the section?

For example, in a scientific paper, I have Introduction, Methods, Results.
How do I identify what Rectangle the Results section is in? And how do I get
the text only from the Results section and not Introduction and Methods.

Thanks.
