Jag har under en längre tid använt Adobe Reader. När jag försöker kopiera text och siffror till ex. Word el. Excel så får jag bara heroglyfer och andra konstiga tecken.

Hur avhjälper man detta problem?

Hello Sörenl,

As per the description above, you are getting gibberish/strange characters in Word when copying text from a PDF, Is that correct?

This scenario occurs when the fonts of the PDF don't have Unicode tables and do not use standard encoding for mapping the glyph indices to characters then you get garbage characters during copy/paste.

Also, the possibility is that the embedded fonts in the PDF and the fonts used to create the PDF file are not available on your system.

If you have a subscription/license of Acrobat, you can try using the PDF Fixup profile "Embed Fonts" in the Preflight tool to embed the fonts in the PDF.

Note: With the freeware Adobe Reader, the PDF fixup is not possible.

Let us know if you need any further assistance.

Regards,

Anand Sri.

I have been able to use Acrobat Reader for a number of years but suddenly it no longer works. Wondering if I've done what caused this problem.
