typing it manually. Is this normal? I never had such a problem in kdpf.
If
I copy text from the same file to the clipboard in kpdf (the latest

There are no

as well.
So we don't have either adobe reader or kpdf in openSUSE 13.1 by
the default
KDE4 or gnome. Does openSUSES 13.1 have a pdf viewer that works
as good as
adobe reader or kpdf?
Thanks,

Just for your knowledge and hope it could lead into the proper settings. oS 13.1 x86_64 and KDE 4.13.3 versions and Okular Version 0.19.3 are working perfectly fine ( It is able to copy to Clipboard like text or image ) and paste it to LO, Calligra or any other compatible Apps.
I also tested on older x86_64 ( 12.3; 13.1 ) KDE 4.11.5 with good performances.
Everything works fine disregard the Type of Selection. Sadly, I could not say where you should start looking for. Maybe the Clipboard settings themselves.
Thanks Ricardo. I think Carlos is right that copy result depend on the given file. The file I work with might be problematic as it has forms (editable notes) and background watermark which may disturb the reader. But my point was that kpdf can copy text to the clipboard correctly while okular can not, from the same document. Nevertheless it would be good if I could find a way to make correct text copies in openSUSE 13.1 either using okular or another pdf viewer that supported or comes with openSUSE 13.1.
Cheers,
Istvan Anyway, if KPDF works with the document, Okular should work too. After all, Okular is the new KPDF for KDE 4 and up. (maybe some coding lines more or less)
That document looks like multiple layers and features on the same document on proprietary style format. Anyway, I do not know if you have calligra-extras-okular package installed.It is a plugin able to interact and supporting files in the formats ODP and MS PPT/PPTX. zypper se calligra-extras-okular This is my hidden card. ;-) And hope it helps.
