Copy and Maintain format

Report · Sep 30, 2021

I want to be able to copy text and past it while maintaining the same font and spacing. On Adobe acrobat pro, when I hover over the text, there is no option to copy or paste with format.

Thanks!

Hi there

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble.As described, there is no option to copy or paste with format in Adobe Acrobat DC

Would you mind sharing the version of the Adobe Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the latest version installed Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

What is the workflow/steps you are doing to copy and paste the text? A small video of the same would be super helpful.

Is this a behavior with a particular PDF file or with all the PDFs? Please try with a different PDF file and check.

Also check if any security/restriction is applied to the file. Open the PDF > File > Properties > Under Description tab, check document restriction summary.

You may also go through the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/reusing-pdf-content.html and see if that works for you.

Regards

Amal
