Hi,

Try Interacting with the text area in the pdf, pressing cmd-a to Select All, 
cmd-c to Copy then pasting it into the text document.  If that doesn't work, 
then the pdf is likely protected.  Also, sometimes in pdf documents, you need 
to use the VO-return combination to start selecting the area and then VO-return 
at the end of your desired selection.

HTH.

Later...
