Copy and paste from iBooks
Hello, Is it possible to use VoiceOver to copy a page or so of text from an iPub book in iBooks and then paste it into an Email as a discussion point? this is on Mac OS El Capitan? If not can this be done on IOS 9.2? I have googled copy and paste from iBooks and found answers on how to do this using vision and a mouse, but this does not help a VoiceOver user. Many thanks.

Re: Copy and paste from iBooks
Hello Paul, I’ve just done a bit of experimenting using a DRM-protected book. Although Shift plus Arrow Keys selects text, Cmd-c doesn’t copy it to the clipboard. However, You can make VO read a paragraph with VO-p then use the VO command VO-Shift-c to copy the last spoken phrase to the clipboard and it works. The largest chunk of text I could do this with was a paragraph. The Next Page command doesn’t seem to work in iBooks. This is on my Mac running the latest El Capitan.

Re: Copy and paste from iBooks
I'll have to try it, Paul, but maybe you could use copy last utterance to clipboard.
