What = I want to do is more than just show graphics. I want to show overlay graphi= cs on top of the text. In fact, the graphics will actually (seem to) intera= ct with the text. In its simplest form, you might envision a box around som= e text, or an arrow drawn on top of the text, pointing at a given word.
