That's almost certainly a scanned document. That means it's just an image, no real text. Text selection cannot work there.

Pretty basic problem I guess, but there’s a bunch of PDF files in which I can’t highlight text. I’ve checked them and the password function is disabled, and I can use other features, but with the text tool selected, all I get is the hand to grab and move the document pages around. On some other documents I do not have this problem, but there are too many documents where this is a problem for me to overlook it.

Thanks,
