Highlighter highlights all the line instead of breaking at column width and
continuing on next column when pdf is organized in 2 columns. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open pdf formated with text in 2 columns (like a scientific paper)
2.use highlighter to highlight text (more than one line)

Actual Results:  
Highlighter highlights text from both columns instead of selecting text from
the columns of interest.

Expected Results:  
highlighter should have selected text from only one column.

in some documents there are some pages where the hilghlighter behaved as
expected and others where it doesn't
