Gotcha, and the last post of the OP was 08-29-2011 10:01 AM

You said it.... A FEW WEEKS, NOT A FEW YEARS.....

Specifically addressing a poster who hasn't been on the thread in almost two years is sorta ludicrous to me.....

And yes I'm well aware of the TOS on replying to old threads....

Might as well add this, maybe the OP will come back and read it after almost two years:

Copy/Paste in Foxit:

On the opened PDF page in Foxit Reader:

1. Click on Tools
2. Click on Select Text
3. Highlight text by dragging the mouse over the text you want to select
4. Press the Ctrl and C keys to save it to the clipboard.
5. Open the software (blank page) where you like to paste the text into
6. Press the Ctrl and V keys to paste the selected text

~DUH~

Most very old threads are brought back by single post wonders that will never post again after finding the thread in a web search and joining to post their one comment. Spammers are also good for this.

Everybody works too hard on the small stuff... What does the age of the thread matter?

FWIW, I like Nitro Pro.

Picked it up for $84 downloaded and commenced to editing and filling in PDFs.

The small stuff like you should learn the capabilities of the software you're using?

Why couldn't the people who first replied to the OP tell he/she/it they were wrong and to RTFM or RTFHS to see how easy it is to copy/paste in Foxit?

Why didn't the poster who resurrected this dead thread stay on topic and explain that yes, Foxit CAN copy/paste.

And why did that same person insult many people here with this comment?

So anybody who wants to criticize TracySam for complaining that she has to type words out instead of copying and pasting from the pdf obviously doesn't understand what it's like to have a job where deadlines have to be met by a certain time.
