text to word copy/paste question

[Rob_Weller@adobeforums.com]

Acrobat 7.x lets me copy text and paste it into a word .doc, but the text arrives with formatting and with a hard carriage return at the end of every line. Is there a way to copy/paste text as plain text without all those carriage returns?

Paste Special will allow you to paste as unformated text, but you are
stuck with the carraige return. If you have an extended selection, you
can remove the return with a find and change or you can use BBEdit
and/or Text Wrangler to remove the returns more easily.

You will find that a tagged PDF will provide better output ... but
tagging as a matter of course on the Mac platform is not as easy as
Windows ...

You can copy and paste to Word ---> PDF or PDF ---> Word with just highlight the text and CTRL + C, then you select the program to transfer the text (Word, PDF, Excel, Outlook, Facebook, etc..) Also, after highlighting the word you can search it in internet ( google, youtube, etc..). Have a look on this tool. www.clicktoapp.com
