Hi All,

I am trying to copy some text from a pdf file which has been
protected, most likely using Adobe on a MSWindows machine.  When I
select some text, the new KDE4 pdf viewer (Okular) shows the 'copy
text' right click menu greyed out:

"Copy forbidden by DRM".

I can still copy the text as an image.

Xpdf does not even allow me to copy it as an image after selection.

I can't remember what the case was with KDE 3.5.10 and kpdf - either
way, is there an application or trick which would allow me to edit the
pdf file in question and add comments, or cut and paste its textual
content into a word file and edit it there?  There's a lot of text
that I need to edit and would rather not have to retype it all ...

Mick
