Hello David I considered mentioning this; but it would be a little tedious I think, if you need to copy an entire document. Also, this is just a personal view, but I believe that operating system solutions are preferable to VoiceOver specific alternatives. This holds true of keyboard entries and other commands. Again, just a personal opinion.
