Trying to copy and paste text from a pdf to a webpage

trying to copy and paste text from a pdf to my iWeb edit page shows up as red lines,  only shows up on the website if I highlight it, please help

If it only shows up when you highlight it, then it could be your font or your font color. Try changing both to a different font to see if that helps. If not, copy it into a word processor such as Microsoft Word, Pages, or Text Edit to see if it shows up there. If it does, try copying it again from the processor to your webpage.

  • I use Acrobat to convert firefox pages to pdf and with firefox4 I need to be able to copy and pasted text from the pdf and no longer can.

    With the prior version of Firefox I could convert web pages (financial data) to pdf for maintaining historical files. And then with the pdf, I was able to copy and paste the numbers into Excel. With Firefox4, I can convert to pdf with Acrobat but I cannot access the numbers for copying and pasting as text, only as a picture. While I prefer Firefox, I check to see if this problem recently started with the "other" company's web browser and did not have this problem. So, it is not Acrobat.

    HI djlarp,
    Try triple-clicking in the text that you want to select--it can sometimes be tricky to select text in a converted document. If that doesn't work, it could be that the PDF document was created from a scanned document, and OCR wasn't enabled when you converted the document. (However, OCR is enabled by default when you convert via the ExportPDF website.)
    If you're unable to select text by triple-clicking, let us know. I would be happy to take a closer look at your files.
    Best,
    Sara

  • How do I copy and paste text from a pdf file and paste it into a new pdf or word file?

    I have a very large pdf file (500 pages) comprised of 200 letters.  How do I copy individual letters (copy and paste sections of the file) and put them in a new pdf or word file?
    Thank you

    Hi drredwood,
    When you open your PDF file a yellow bar will appear on the top of the screen.
    Click on 'Enable All Features'.
    Then you will be able to copy the content from your pdf and to paste in any of the file.

  • Preview - Cannot copy and paste text from pdf

    Hi there ...
    I usually have no problem copying and pasting text from a pdf using Preview ...
    However .. I recently received a pdf ... and there is no way it will highlight the text to copy ...
    The older pdf's are not affected ...
    I did a get info on the pdf ... it's not locked ... and it was made by Adobe In Design CS2
    I tried opening it with Adobe Reader 9 ...... but still no luck
    IN my search .. I noticed one other person had the same problem ... but he didn't get any responses..
    Thanks for any info ....

    If it's behind something else then you can open it in Illustrator and select the specific object you want. If it's rasterized then no.
    If this is a document you can share with the world then I'm sure we could tell you what specifically is going on if you posted it here.

  • Why am I no longer able to copy and paste text from a website?

    Hi, Jrpaige7. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    You can still copy and paste material from various applications in iOS 7.  Here are the steps on how to process these steps.

    If you are experiencing issues with this functionality, I would recommend closing multitasking and power cycling the device.

  • How do I copy and paste text from a converted Word document?

    I just converted a pdf file into word.  I want to copy and paste the informatiuon into another document.  How do I do that?

    Hi Sara.  Tanks for responding.  If I cannot figure this out (I  was up
    until 2am last night), I want to cancel my subscription.
    Here are two files you can check on/help me with.  When I try again,  it
    comes up 'an error has occurred when trying to access the service.'
    Please advise.

  • How to copy and paste text from a web site viewed in Chrome using the Xperia z3v?

    I have searched high and low for a way to copy and paste text from a web site in Chrome using the Xperia z3v.  I've tried a long tap, a double tap, a triple tap - nothing works. I am able to select text, copy and paste it in a Word doc, however.  There must be some way to do this on a web site in Chrome. I'm certain I am not trying to select text that is really an image. I am trying to copy text. Here is the link where I'm trying to get the text. It's a recipe.http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ree-drummond/mushroom-pilaf.html#! Maybe I should try to get Firefox for smart phones and see if that works. Any ideas?Thank you!

Holy Cow, who'da thought?!!Thank you. I gave you a kudo and I marked this as a solution. Thanks again!PS - I'm amazed at how long it takes me to accomplish seemingly simple things with a smart phone. This is my first smart phone ever. I am a former computer programmer and am very PC literate. Still, sometimes I pull my hair out. Thanks again! 

  • Muse 3.1 crashes often upon copy and paste 'text'from illustrator

    Experience persistent crashes in Muse 3.1 whenever I copy and paste text from illustrator to  Muse.

    I would use the older version so you can continue working while troubleshooting continues in CC2014, if you haven't uninstalled it yet (and it didn't also lose the ability to copy/paste).
    Have you tried any of the usual suspects?

  • Why can't you copy and paste text from the Dictionary widget?

    I use this dictionary often, but I wish that I was able to copy and paste the text from it.

    Just use the Dictionary application in the Applications folder. You will have no problem copying and pasting text from the full application. I just tried it and it works fine.

  • I have an iPhone 4s, and I cannot copy and paste text from facebook.

    Are the use the correct email address for the contact? Those are listed in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive. When Messaging somene the iOS devices used the email address (or phone number if applicable) listed in the Contact app for that person.
    Thus, it appears the you Contact apps only has that one email address listed for the person you are trying to Message.
    If he can send you a Messages can you reply to it? If so save the sender to your Contact app.

    You will be able to do copy & paste when 3.0 comes out this summer.

    No. You would make changes to the address book on your PC and then sync via iTunes.

    Hi DG.
    The easiest way to copy an HP Photo Creations project to another computer is to click the Share button. That will upload the project to the Web and give you a link you can paste into an email. Clicking the link on the other computer allows you to download the project and personalize it. This quick video shows the process. (The screen looks slightly different now, but the concept is the same.)
    Another way to share a project is copy the project folder to a thumb drive. Look in Documents/HP Photo Creations/My Things to find your saved projects.
    Our customer support team would be happy to walk you through the process. Contact them at [email protected]

  • I am unable to copy and paste text from mozilla, clipboard error

    Hi-
    It seems I am suddenly unable to copy and paste anything from mozilla into other text editors (word, wordpad, notepad).
    I am unable to use ctrl c or v, when trying to do Edit-copy or paste it seems as though nothing is "recognized" by Mozilla.
    I'm using a netbook running Win7.
    In an effort to fix this problem I restarted firefox, started in safe mode, disabled all plugins, returned to default settings, and have done basically everything except for uninstalling and reinstalling.
    Are there suggestions? I looked in older posts, but I also do not have the pushow.dll(or something like it) or the new.net(or comparable) malware so I cant get rid of that either.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Firefox button > Web Developer > Error Console or {Ctrl + Shft + J} from the keyboard
    Do you have any messages relating specifically to that error? <br />
    You can right-click a message and use Copy to get that message into the clipboard - and then Paste it here. (If that works.)
    Beyond that, try a new Profile (don't Delete your current Profile). <br />
