Firefox PDF - add option to highlight text

more options

Hi, I really appreciate the work on PDF.js and I hope to eventually not use any proprietary software (looking at the bloated Adobe Reader...) for pdf files anymore.

The thing I am missing most right now: the option to highlight text.

There is a workaround by selecting the draw tool with 50% opacity/thickness and using a light color, but it's not the same as just highlighting text like in other pdf viewers.

Best, przvl
