    tariely,

    What happens if you open the document and then press Ctrl+A (or Cmd+A on a Mac)?

    I presume there is no Text Selection Tool availbale in Reader.

    Soon someone will tell you to repost in the Adobe Reader forum, but there is no need if this is the solution.

    I am glad the text extraction worked; that was what you asked for in the OP.

    You should be aware that when you use the Print Screen you get a 72 PPI image of the current size, so you should zoom in as close as possible to get as high a resolution as possible.
