Text and special characters are not copied properly

Question

Greetings,

I have encountered an ussie with copying text from a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat (paid version) on the MAC OS. The text should be copied with diacritics, in the Czech language as is used in the file. How should I proceed?

Without formatting:

situaci, tim prizpusobivejsf pozdeji V zivote bude. Je-li zakladnl trenink zahcijen v tomto ranem obdobl, nasledujid nciroCnejSl yYcvik bude mene obtizny.

With formatting:

situaci, tim prizpusobivejsi pozdeji V zivote bude. Je-li zakladni trenink zahajen v tomto ranem obdobi, nasledt1jici narocnejsi yYcvik bude mene obtizny.

What I need:

situací, tím přizpůsobivější později v životě bude. Je-li základní trénink zahájen v tomto brzkém období (...)

Thanks.

Hi @Martin28874240f9zj

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that.

It looks like the font issue. You can work with Adobe PDF files that contain Cyrillic text (including Bulgarian and Russian), Central European text, and Eastern European text (including Czech, Hungarian, and Polish) if the fonts are embedded in the PDF files. If the fonts are embedded, you can view and print the files on any system. Fonts do not need to be embedded to use the Search feature.

Note: If you open a PDF file in which form fields or text boxes contain these languages but the fonts are not embedded and are not installed on your system, choosing Help > Check For Updates Now automatically prompts you to download and install the necessary fonts.

For more information, please go through the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/asian-cyrillic-right-to-left.html
