Cant' copy text with 9.2

i have been using adobe reader 6 for a long time and quite liked it because i could copy text from a pdf document and paste it into wordpad or other word processor. i often pick bits and pieces out of long pdf documents to create one with more concise makeup. a lot of times i print a pdf document from the internet where i don't have a printer.
recently i found that on some pdf docs, i could not perform this copy feature. the icons were there to use but nothing happened when i tried to work on the pdf document. so i thought maybe i needed a newer version.
just installed 9.2 and i cannot find how to do the same thing, has this feature disappeared with this version?
i did find where i could copy text but when i paste it into wordpad it is a file much like when one copies an image.
can anyone enlighten me on this topic?
if the text copy feature is gone..i am going to uninstall 9.2 and go back to my old version 6.

Still there. It's the same "select tool" as available in earlier versions. If you don't have it on your toolbar, right click in the toolbar area, select "more tools" then find the select tool and check it. You'll have it in your toolbar like before.

Sounds like it may look like text but is just an image of some text (like a scan).

Problem copying text with graphs from web pages

I can't copy text+graph from webpages. Copying into Pages or Microsoft Word for Mac, the text is copied the graphs are not. (With Firefox, I can't even copy text!)
I have Parallels, and on the Microsoft side I have no problem copying both text and graphs simultaneously.
Could you, please, advice

Thanks.It works-sort of. I can copy into TextEdit without problems. This is probably the solution by itself because I can save it. Copying into Words (from TextEdit) didn't work. Copying into Pages partially works: the graphs are reproduced but the layout comes out funny.
Thank you

InDesign CS3 crashes when applying styles to pasted text with formatting.

Running InDesign CS3, v. 5.0.2 on Windows XP, SP2
InDesign is crashing whenever I do the following:
1. Paste or place text from Microsoft Word -- with existing formatting preserved.
2. Apply any character or paragraph style to that text.
This happens 100% of the time when I try to recreate the error. It happens on more than one computer. It never used to happen in IDCS2. It's not a missing font issue.
I've tried recreating the InDesign preference files, but it didn't work. (See help file at http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb400616&sliceId=1)
Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated! This is slowing down my work a ton, and manually adding things like underline is killing me. If it persists, I'll have to roll back to CS2. :(

We had exactly the same issue - but it only seemed to happen when a "Hyperlink" character style came in with the pasted text. In fact, the crash only happened when we tried to apply a paragraph style to a paragraph that had a hyperlink in it.
Our solution: before we try to do anything else, we delete the "Hyperlink" character style. I can't guarantee that this will solve your issue, but it has worked for us (so far!) in those rare cases when we cut & paste Word text.
We have never had this issue when we import ("Place") the Word file - that's generally a better workflow anyway.

Storing text with format

I have a requirement like this.I have to store the textframes' text into a xml file and I should also be able to reproduce the textframes along with original format(text color,underline,bold etc) from xml.I thought of using rtf format.
I want to know how to convert the textframe text into rtf(to a pmstring).
Is there any other format to store in xml file other than rtf ?which is simpler ?
Thanks in advance.

You shouldn't have any trouble re-displaying it in a TextArea.
Do you explicitly remove the linebreaks at some point?
So somewhere along the way it is "losing" the linebreaks.
Is it received at the java end with linebreaks?
Is it stored in the database with linebreaks?
If you view source in the HTML does it show the value with linebreaks?
How are you putting the value into the text area ta2?
The standard way would be <textarea> ${myTextHere} </textarea>
If that has carriage returns in the value, then they should come straight out into the second textarea.
If you are just displaying the data OUTSIDE of a text area, on an html page, then things are different, because HTML ignores whitespace by default.
You could use <pre> tags around the value to stop it being messed with. ie <pre> ${myTextHere} </textarea>
Or alternatively replace all newlines in the value with "<br>" - which is the HTML to say "go to the next line"

Javascript or function to copy text to clipboard in Acrobat forms

Hello, I have a docuement that has a set of SQL procedures listed as text files. These procedures spread over many pages and there are often errors copying the text into SQL.
Ideally, a button to copy a set of text to clipboard is the best solution - I haven't had any luck finding a Javascript to do this, nor can I see how to. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks

That you can't do. You need to select the text by hand.
There is an option to select text in the document using a script, but you
can only select one word at a time using it.

Adf Input Text with formatted xml Content

Hi,
I have a requirements where I get an xml content in one line
as suppose <xml ><a><a1></a1><a2><a2></a><b></b></xml>
I want this Input text to render it proper fromat like
<xml >
    <a>
        <a1>
        </a1>
         <a2>
         <a2>
   </a>
   <b>
</b>
</xml>I tried to set wrap property to soft
but it is not affecting
Please tell me any component that will properly structure the input xml
How can I do this.

User, please tell us your jdev version!
There is no component AFAIK. You may want to try the rich text editor, but if I remember it correct it won't do what you want.
My solution would be to write a custom converter and format the code in the converter to show it then in the inputText.

Copy text with keyboard

I can paste using the keyboard (cmd-V), but I cannot copy with keyboard, ony through the dropdown menu. What's wrong? How do I fix it?

yes, I am saying that. cmd-c is not working. cmd-v does work. cmd-x does work.
when I do cmd-c and then try to paste it I get the last thing I copied with the drop-down menu copy option, or the last thing I ut using cmd-x, not what I w trying to copy and paste. cmd-c has effect.

Captivate 7 - Windows 7

I am using CP 7 and Word 2010 and some really strange fonts including Neurpol, etc. Anyway it worked perfectly for five of my six modules (projects). For one however, the import affected no change so I cleared my preferences (a trick Iearned from youi), and the import worked perfectly.
Altogether I had approximately 800 replacements. Doing it manually would have been a nightmare! Especially given that Captivate does not highlight the word when found (at least in my version-instance of CP 7).
Thanks for replying!

Issue Using C# to Get RTF Text From Clipboard to Outlook With Formatting and Without Encoding Tags

I have created a little application that gathers data from various text boxes and then combines the data into a formatted richTextBox. A person using the tool asked if I could then add a button that would allow that text (with formatting) to be copied
and pasted into an Outlook Email. When I do this, I can get the text into an email, but I either strip out the formatting or I get all the RTF encoding tags to come along with it.
I have tested to see that the copy of the data from the richTextBox has indeed made it to the clipboard correctly. This has been verified by the fact that I can manually press "ctrl" + "v" and I can past the text with proper
formatting into the mail body.
I do know that I can brute force things by trying to manually wrap HTML tags around my textBox fields and then pipe that into an HTMLBody property. In fact I can get a lot of things to work with the HTMLBody property, but while it is nice that will
work, I feel that I must be missing something really simple while trying to work with RTF.
I currently am pasting (using the Clipboard.GetText(TestDataFormat.RTF)) the RTF data into the Body property of the mail item. This is bringing in all the RTF encoding tags. I have tried to paste this directly into the RTFBody of the mail item,
yet an execption gets thrown when executed. Oddly, though, if I change RTFBody to HTMLBody, I do not get the exception, but I still have the RTF encoding tags in it. Though if I feed the HTMLBody property straight, HTML text with the encoding tags,
it will render properly.
This has me confused then why if I feed HTMLBody HTML text with the encoding tags that it will render, but if I try and do the same for RTFBody and feed it RTF text with encoding tags it still throws an exception. Any help in the matter would be greatly
appreciated. I have included the code snippet below for sending the richTextBox information to the clipboard and then attempting to retrieve it and paste it into an Outlook email.
Thanks for the help.
Some pertinent information:
Blend for Visual Studio 2015 CTP6 (I switched from VS2012 as intellisense was added to Blend in 2015)
Because of this Systems.Windows.Forms is not in use
private void buttonEmail_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
//Copy richTextBox information to Clipboard
Clipboard.Clear();
richTextBox.SelectAll();
richTextBox.Copy();
//Get current date to add to email subject line
DateTime myNewDate = new DateTime();
myNewDate = DateTime.Now;
//Create Email
Outlook.Application myNewApplication = new Outlook.Application();
Outlook.MailItem myNewMailIoI = myNewApplication.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem) as Outlook.MailItem;
myNewMailIoI.To = " "; //An attempt to ensure that the focus moves down to the body field
myNewMailIoI.Subject = "IoI - " + myNewDate.Date.ToString("d");
myNewMailIoI.BodyFormat = Outlook.OlBodyFormat.olFormatRichText;
//Pasting data into body of email
myNewMailIoI.Body = Clipboard.GetText(TextDataFormat.Rtf); //This will past the text with encoding tags into email
//If this section is uncommented, it will add a properly formatted HTML text to the email
//myNewMailIoI.BodyFormat = Outlook.OlBodyFormat.olFormatHTML;
//myNewMailIoI.HTMLBody = "<p>This stinks!!!</p>" + "<p style='color: green; font-size:10pt; font-family:arial'>different font and color</p>";
myNewMailIoI.Display(); //Allow for window to be minimized
myNewMailIoI.Display(true);

Ok, I found the solution. Part of the issue was caused by the confusion of the HTML body property acting as a text encoder for HTML text when a string is passed in vs the RTF Body property needing to have a plain text file taken and encoded into a
byte stream. Even though the RTF text is in readable text (albeit with the RTF Encoding Tags) it needs to be reencoded into a series of bytes.
This is where I failed to understand the previous answers. I knew that RTF Body needed to have a array of bytes, and the previous answers seemed to indicate that the data in the clipboard was already in this byte format (this may have just been my
misunderstanding) and that I needed to somehow take this byte array and do something with it. My misunderstanding was that all the methods for getting values from the clipboard returned strings and not bytes.
after some digging last night and with the few hints that were offered before, I came across a post on CodeProject (apparently I cannot post links, so I will try and include this so that you can find the postcodeproject(DOTCOM)/Questions/766917/How-to-convert-richtextbox-output-into-bytearray).
This showed that I needed to take the raw, RTF text with its RTF encoding tags from the clipboard and and encode it to a byte array and then pass this into the RTF Body property. Included below is the final code such that I hope that it helps some other
person as there seem to be a lot of searches for this on the web, but not a lot of direct answers.
using System.Text;
using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;
private void buttonEmail_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
//Copy richTextBox information to Clipboard
Clipboard.Clear();
richTextBox.SelectAll();
richTextBox.Copy();
//Get current date to add to email subject line
DateTime myNewDate = new DateTime();
myNewDate = DateTime.Now;
//Create Email
Outlook.Application myNewApplication = new Outlook.Application();
Outlook.MailItem myNewMailIoI = myNewApplication.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem) as Outlook.MailItem;
//Add Subject
myNewMailIoI.Subject = "IoI - " + myNewDate.Date.ToString("d");
//Set Body Format to RTF
myNewMailIoI.BodyFormat = Outlook.OlBodyFormat.olFormatRichText;
//Converting RAW RTF data from string to bytes. THIS IS THE FIX THAT WAS NEEDED TO MAKE IT WORK
string myNewText = Clipboard.GetText(TextDataFormat.Rtf);
byte[] myNewRtfBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(myNewText); //This line cost me way too many hours of lost sleep!!!
//Inserting RTF bytes into RTFBody property
myNewMailIoI.RTFBody = myNewRtfBytes;
myNewMailIoI.Display(); //Displays the newlycreated email
//If this section is uncommented, it will add a properly formatted HTML text to the email
//myNewMailIoI.BodyFormat = Outlook.OlBodyFormat.olFormatHTML;
//myNewMailIoI.HTMLBody = "<p>This works for the HTMLbody property!!!</p>" + "<p style='color: green; font-size:10pt; font-family:arial'>this renders properly</p>";

Formatting text with Safari

I am posting ads on a website that doesn't use Safari (or any non PC system, from what I gather) for formatting. As a result, when I paste text in it only allows ktml formatting, which doesn't make paragraphs or do anything else. Is there a way to create text with formatting that will paste in as I format it, or is there a MAC-friendly browser that will allow me to format?

If this site is really using KTML (as opposed to HTML), then you really don't have many choices for editing anything. Formatting is limited to the site design and capabilities of the system as they designed it.
You might try this site for a script that works in Safari: http://www.hotscripts.com/Detailed/57712.html

Can i copy text from illustrator to indesign and retain attributes

Hello,
I received an illustrator cs3 file that I need to convert to InDesign cs3.
Is there a way to copy the type that is set in illustrator to indesign, while retaining the attributes. I need to be able to make changes on the type in indesign, so converting type to outlines isn't an option.
Thanks!
T

Even though you can change your InDesign preferences for Clipboard Handling to allow formatted information to be pasted into InDesign from other programs, unfortunately Illustrator still won't allow you paste in text with formatting. This is due to how Illustrator and InDesign handle text differently. Even if you copy the text from Illustrator and paste it into a program like Word, which has a lot of different ways to handle formatted text, Illustrator just treats text differently than other Adobe applications.

How can I copy text from PDF and include the source filename in the pasted selection?

I'm a biologist and frequently cut-and-paste notes from PDFs of scientific articles. I name all of the PDF articles with their PubMed ID, a short unique identifier (e.g. 19397482.pdf). When I take notes, I will select a few sentences from the PDF and then paste them into a text editor for later reference.
Can anyone suggest a method or script that would allow me to paste the copied text with the Pubmed filename included in a single action? I would want the pasted output it to look something like this, with the filename appended to the end:
Of the transcripts that were significantly different, there was a greater number of transcripts that were down-regulated in the IVC embryos (380) than the number of transcripts that were up-regulated (208). [20668257.pdf]
This would really help me to properly cite information sources during the writing process. I know there are bibliography managers that might be able to do something like this, but I prefer to read the PDF articles directly in Preview and select the text as I am reading.
Thanks very much for any suggestions / ideas.

To copy and paste in a single action:
tell application "Preview" to activate
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Preview"
    -- Get the PubMed ID:
    get the title of the front window
    set thePubMedID to word 1 of result
    -- Copy the selected text to the clipboard:
    keystroke "c" using {command down} -- ⌘C
    delay 0.25 -- adjust if necessary
    -- Add the PubMed ID to the contents of the clipboard:
    set theNotes to the clipboard
    set the clipboard to (theNotes & space & "[" & thePubMedID & ".pdf]")
end tell
tell application "Notational Velocity" to activate
tell application "System Events"
    -- Paste the contents of the clipboard to the end of the Notational Velocity document
    key code 125 using command down -- ⌘↓
    keystroke return & return
    keystroke "v" using {command down} -- ⌘V
end tell

Hi
I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
What can I do?
thank you a lot.

There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
- Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
- Adobe Reader (free)
Which do you have? And are you a programmer?
