You could perhaps do your editing/selecting with a pdf editor

then export the result into LO.  There are several possibilities,
some completely free, others free for personal use.

Suggest you search for "PDF Editor for Linux.

The university at which I teach has not purchased the Test Bank software that
is widely used to create homework and tests. The source pages for this
software are simply pdf's of various math problems, and I can successfully
print any selection of full pages to pdf files. I would like to select
individual problems from those pdf pages, but in all cases, the file in LO
does not bring in the math symbols, only the numbers.
I've tried cutting and pasting from the pdf, opening the pdf page that was
printed from Linux Mint 17/CUPS, either in LO or in Math. I'm running LO
version 4.8.4.2 with the Dmaths extension.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
