Due to the way that IBM has generated the PDF, you cannot cut from it. Apparently it is an image type PDF, not a text PDF. This may explain IBM's apparent discontinuing of bookmanager books. You can cut from them. Which IBM might think contributes to possible copyright violation. So the image format PDF is a form of DRM. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
