I don't have a whole slew of pdfs to read, so I don't know if some other file created on some other app, will behave as nicely as this did, but I have to hand it to Foxit.
I've tested with that EOS40 pdf and found a way that works using xpdf to view the pdf, select the text, and copy into kate, but that works ootb too, here. Could be, because I still use ISO-8859-15/latin9 here and not UTF-8. Long story short, I created a tex-document with pdfpages, ran pdflatex. Might be worth a try. Could someone mail me that "icky" pdf? Or try themselves with this? Basic .tex: ==== SAMPLE .tex for pdflatex w/pdfpages ==== \documentclass{scrartcl} \usepackage{pdfpages} \begin{document} \includepdf[pages=-]{EOS40D_IM_fra.pdf} \end{document} ==== Got a sample script too as in 'foo IN.pdf OUT.pdf'. There are also some options (class, options for pdfpages, etc.) one could play around with (pagesize for one). -dnh -- "All mushrooms are edible.
