How to locate text on a buffered Image

I need to analyse a Buffered Image and locate the X and Y coordinates of a certain word or phrase. How will I accomplish this, where should a start. I have taken a look at some OCR libraries, but the ones I tried only provide the text and no location where the text can be found.

If you have any advice, it would be appreciated.

You can check hOCR output or ResultIterator object of Tesseract to obtain recognized word coordinates. Look at the test cases of Tess4J, a Java JNA wrapper of Tesseract API, for examples with BufferedImage.
