Reusing PDF content
Select and copy text
The Select tool lets you select horizontal and vertical text or columns of text in a PDF. You can use the Copy and
Paste commands to copy the selected text into another application. If you hold the pointer over the text selection, a
menu appears that lets you copy, highlight, or underline the text, among other options. Note the following:
•
If the Cut, Copy, and Paste commands are unavailable when you select text, the author of the PDF may have set
restrictions against copying text.
•
If the text you copy uses a font that isn’t available on your system, the font will be substituted with a close match
or a default font.
