Interactive API with PDF document

I am working on a feasibility for having an application that can capture text from PDF. The simple use-case can be briefed as:

  1. User selects text on PDF document (using Acrobat reader / or other PDF reader)
  2. The selection completed event should be available to the .NET application that is observing.
  3. Upon selection, the user can select, state some further properties (like category/level) and the same information is tagged along with the selected text inside the PDF file itself.
  4. The selected text should be retained with highlighted color. The color will be different depending upon other parameters (like category/level) selected in the .NET application.
  5. A separate application should be able to parse and gather these data from the PDF file.

Similar application is already working with MS Word files.

Edit:

The basic requirement is that there should be some way to notify the .NET application when user selects some text in the PDF document. The other requirement is that there should be a way to add a tag to the selected document.

Can somebody suggest some API/resource for such implementations?
