    With the "Select Tool " Active - curor will be an "I" - Try dragging your mouse/cursor over the text you want then copy and paste

    If that don't work, look at the document properties File menu >> properties >> Security tab .... copying maybe "Not Allowed"

    above depend what version of Adobe Reader you are using - so just generic help.... HTH

    On the 'select' icon on the toolbar, you have two options: select text or select image. Choose select image and draw a box around the part of the page you want to capture. Then open Word or Paint and paste it in.

    create your own one page pdf file by using a pfd printer such as http://www.cutepdf.com/
    select the one page you want to use and then it creates a pfd file with that one page - it is just called printing - no real papre involved ... but you use it by file menu >> print - then change to the CutePDF Printer ...........
