The easy way to do this would be to take a scan of the board and  
superimpose the labels in text over the picture. It is important that  
the labels be text. You can then convert the entire image, pict and  
text to a PDF. You then do a text search to find the desired label. No  
programming needed!

And no, I don't have the time to do that now. I am _way_ too busy doing  
other things...
