Yes, you select the portion you want, then copy (Ctrl+C) and paste it into the target application.
Example; here is a portion of a PDF - the blue portion is selected and copied:
And here is the pasted output in Notepad:

  • How to make only part of a PDF document editable?

    I'm looking to see if there is a way to make only part of a PDF document editable. My problem is, I have pieces of collateral that some of our channel partners need to be able to add their logo to and then edit the contact information on them, but we don't want them to be able to change any of the main copy on these documents. The only thing I've been able to come up with as a solution is to create outlines of the text that I don't want editable, but I need the copy to be able to be read by computer systems for disability purposes. Does anyone have any ideas on something I could do for this? Or has anyone dealt with anything like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi vward26,
    You can use Acrobat to make only part of a PDF document editable.
    Kindly refer this FAQ:http://tv.adobe.com/watch/acrobat-x-tips-tricks/how-to-convert-just-part-of-a-pdf-file/

    ps.  Wow, what a user UNFRIENDLY site this is!

    In most cases you can just select the text and copy/paste. You can do that unless the file is a picture/scan.

  • How to copy paste a table structure from word document into Text Field [field format Rich Text]

    In our current implementation we have a Blank page with Text Field [field format Rich Text] on generated PDF Document.
    Once the PDF document is generated, user can copy paste content form any word/rtf document to into the Text Field.
    Pasted content retains all text formatting [Bold, Italic, Underline, Indentation] except the Table format. Text Field is removing table metadata from the content and converting it into plant text.
    Is there anyway to copy paste table structure as it is from word document into Text Field?

    Hi,
    I don't think you can! While you can paste formatted text into the rich text field, the table metadata means nothing to the textfield.

  • When I copy/paste a paragraph from a PDF doc, it pastes with no spaces between words. How can I fix this? I've searched everywhere for the solution but didn't find anyone had this issue.

    When I copy/paste a paragraph from a PDF doc (onto Facebook status bar, for example) it pastes with no spaces between words.  I.e: "The manhadajugofcoolwaterand offeredmeadrink." How can I fix this? I've searched everywhere for the solution but didn't find anyone had this issue. I'm new to Apple so any help will be much appreciated. Thanks!

    I can't speak about this occurring with FaceBook since I don't use FaceBook, but I see the same type of thing when I copy and pasted from websites. It doesn't always happen and I cannot find any particular set of circumstances under which it occurs or does not occur.
    I am merely responding to let you know that it happens to me as well and I have seen no way to correct it. I'm not so sure that there is a way to correct in in that it may have something to do with how the original text is formatted in the PDF or on the website and how it eventually "fits" into the text field or the area in which it is pasted.

  • When I copy/paste text to an ipages empty document can does it only show the first page of what I copied?

    When I copy/paste text to an ipages empty document can does it only show the first page of what I copied?

    You want to use word processing mode. I suggest you ask your question in the Pages forum and include information about what you are copying. Off the top of my head I can't come up with any reason you'd see this in WP mode.   https://discussions.apple.com/community/iwork/pages

  • How do I convert specific images on my clipboard to text once pasting the image onto my .pdf document?

    Hey Adobe experts, I could really use your help.
    I have a couple screen shots from school lectures that I pasted onto OneNote. These screenshots have substantial amount of text I could use. I have created a big .pDF document where I have been saving my notes and text. Now - how do I convert the SPECIFIC images I paste onto the document into text? I'm using the word "Specific" here because I know I can run OCR on a blank page without any text. But how do I run OCR on an image
    It automatically happened a couple times when I tried saving the document immediately after I pasted the image - when I was under "edit PDF" I was able to edit and change fonts of the text. But how do I do this at will? Is there a special button somewhere?
    P.S. I already tried OCR - but this is only limited to pages without already "renderable text".
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC; Windows 8.1 machine

    Hi SinNombre,
    If you are referring to running OCR on a page with image and renderable text, it is not supported. However, you could use the following workaround for the same:
    1. Print the PDF document to Microsoft XPS Document Writer or go to File->Export to...->Image-> (Any format example TIFF or PNG)
    2. Convert the output created to PDF. This PDF will contain all text and images as images.
    3. Run OCR on this PDF.
    This should resolve your problem

  • How can I prevent copy/pasting of text from my PDF?

    I'm having trouble creating PDF security that DOES NOT allow copying of text. It seems I follow the security steps yet still am able to copy/paste.

    Yes, I have figured that out and found I need a customized PDF viewer. It didn't occur to me to use a company that creates e-books, etc.  Thank you for your help today.

  • My L7680 intermitently prints gibberish part way through pdf documents.

    My printer has recently strated to intermitently print gibberish part way through a pdf document.  It happens most often if the document is long, eg more than ~5 pages or if I send several pdf documnets to the print queue.  If I resubmit the document for printing, often it comes out OK or it goes wrong later in the document.
    I'm running Windows XP and I access the printer through a BT HomeHub wireless.  I've tried reinstalling the drivers, resetting the HomeHub and running the HP Diagnostic software with no joy (the latter found no problems).  The problem does not seem to occur when printing Word documents.
    I hope someone can help.

    There have been reports of Vista not working well with older networking equipment.  Here's a link to a Microsoft note on this subject.
    I also have a couple of other questions:
    When the printer stalls, can you ping the printer from the PC?  Can you access the printer's internal web page by browsing its IP address?
    How is the PC connected to your network (wired or wireless)?
    Are there other wireless devices on the network besides your PC and your printer?
    When the printer stalls, can you still browse the internet from your PC?

  • How can I delete part of a PDF document?

    I recently acquired a device that had instructions as a PDF document.  The document was in English, French and Spanish.  Sooo, 10 of the 15 pages I don't need.  How can I delete these pages? Thanks!

    Not with Adobe Reader, but with a PDF editor like Adobe Acrobat.

  • How can I copy/paste a page from one pages document into another pages document?

    I have read the directions in the manual, but when I go to the document where I want to put the page the paste function is greyed out.  I assume this has something to do with styles, but can't find what to do. 

    You got it.
    Paste is greyed when we try to paste a page from a WP document into the thumbnails area of a Layout one.
    It's active if we try to paste in the pages area.
    In the document's tool bar, there is an icon with a + symbol at top left.
    In WP documents it's named Sections, In Layout ones its named Pages.

  • Copy/Pasting from Hebrew font in PDF

    Hi -
    I'm trying to copy and paste text from a PDF so I can edit and analyze the contents.  The file was created in Hebrew. It is set of Israel's election results and available on their government website: http://www.moin.gov.il/Apps/PubWebSite/mainmenu.nsf/4DF815EA4AC4E503C2256BA6002EE732/8E408 A044EE1D3EDC2257520002817B8/$FILE/News.pdf.
    Under document properties, the fonts listed are Helvetica (standard) and two unknown, embedded subsets (TTE1C42600t00 and TTE1DA2290t00).
    I have tried:
    - Copy and pasting text from Reader 9 --> opening in Word and Excel, changing around fonts
    - Copy and pasting text from Acrobat 8 Professional --> opening in Word and Excel, changing around fonts
    - Right-click, open table as spreadsheet
    - Exporting as .doc, .TIFF, PostScript, .txt, .html
    - Export as image, running OCR (trialware Hebrew OCR program I used did not pick up all characters correctly)
    - Adobe website mentions an Adobe Reader Middle Eastern Edition 7, but when I go to download it, it takes me to the regular Reader v9 page
    Can anyone think of a way to extract the data from this document so that it is editable?
    Any help would be appreciated!

    I recommend you to try another OCR.

  • Are parts of a pdf document in Adobe Acrobat Pro able to be secured so that once the recipient fills out a specific section, signs it, and submits it to the original sender, that information filled out is locked from editing for security purposes? If so,

    I have an application I'm submitting to our school website for potential students to fill out. There are sections for the student(s) to fill out as well as sections for staff to fill out. For the sake of security for the student filling out the form, I'd like to set it up so that once the student has filled out the proper sections and submits the information, any information filled out and signed by the student is locked from editing on my part. I only need to read what the student filled out and signed, then add my notes to Staff sections.  Is this possible? If so, how?  I need details!

    You can create a script that will lock the fields before signing. But when you edit the document after the student signs, the signature will no longer be valid and the document will show that it has been changed after signing. Adobe restricts the number of files you can collect information on with forms that can be saved and emailed. The restriction used to be 500 files unless you purchased the appropriate LiveCycle product to enable the pdf files for saving.
    Why in the world are you requiring potential students to sign forms. Many students will not know how to sign pdf files. Just have a button that will submit the information to a website for you to extract or to send you the information in an FDF file and import the information form. You can have a button that will lock the fields they fill out. This will ensure you do not have to worry about the 500 file limit.

  • How do I copy/paste a part FROM GarageBand for iPad TO another app?

    This is a feature that it looks like Apple have half-implemented but it's not complete...
    I can paste parts TO GarageBand for iPad from numerous other apps no problem. I've done this with everyday looper, sunrizer, dm1, nlog, etc.
    But when I try to copy parts FROM GarageBand it fails. I need to do this to, say, take a part I'm working on, listen to it in everyday looper, and compose an NLog synth part over the top. Or to take a part from GarageBand, add effects in Moog Filtron, and then paste it back to GarageBand. This is basic stuff you need to be able to do if you are using an app like GarageBand as your songwriting environment.
    With functionality like this potentially blocked or not implemented, it makes GarageBand not the production solution it could be. Very much hope I'm being stupid and you can point out the way...

    Doesn't seem possible at the moment. It may well be in the pipeline already but you could always drop a line to GarageBand for iPad Feedback requesting such a feature...
