How do I copy text from an e-book (PDF-file)?

Answer 1

To copy the text in an e-book (PDF) file, follow these steps:
1 Open the file using a PDF-reader or tool such as the one in the Google browser.
2 Find the line where you want to copy the text in the file. You can drag or use the shortcut keys to locate text.
3. Choose the text that you want to copy. Use mouse or keyboard shortcuts such as right-clicking the text and choosing "copy" or holding down the ctrl-key and clicking the text to select the text.
4 Open another text editor or file such as a text editor, email client, or browser window and paste the selected text.
5 If the PDF-file contains encrypted text, it needs to be encrypted and copied. You can use a PDF-deciphering tool such as Adobe Acrobat Pro or an online PDF-deciphering service.
Be careful when using PDF-editing tools such as the latest version of Android, as they may destroy the encrypted content in the file.
