Well after a bit of running around I was able to find out two things.
First you are correct the document is protected and you can tell by
going to file then document properties then security and it will tell
you what is protected. Next in a document that is not all protected you
can select an area with the snapshot function then go to print and it
will say print graphic and it will print just the area you selected
filling the complete paper size.
Now if I can just unprotect the document I will be able to print what I
need.

The best test would be to go back to a document that worked before and
see if you can print from it. If so, then the current one that you are
working with is protected. I'm not sure, unless you have the full
acrobat program (not just the reader) that you can tell if a doc is
protected.

Actually I have done this before where I just select a part of the
page I want text or what ever and after selecting I go to print and
the "print selection" is available. For some reason I can not remember
if I used the camera or the data selection tool. In any case it does
not work anymore.
How would I tell if the document is protected. These are TV schematics.

There are some pdf documents that the author has protected. With
these, you cannot copy any part of it. You might try FoxIt reader
(pdf reader) where you can save back a copy and now you should be
able to take parts of it as you are trying. To get just text, you do
not want to use the camera, but the little vertical line that allows
you to highlight the text you want. If you want the full graphic
layout, etc, then you will want to use the camera which will copy to
a graphics program (via the clipboard). You can get Foxit at

I tried the detect and repair function but it did not fix it. I
wonder if I am using it correctly. I view a page the click on the
little camera snapshot the drag across the area I want to print. In
my case the camera is always dimmed plus no action when clicked of
coarse.
I tried removing the program then reinstalling it and that did not
work either.

FWIW, mine still works. You can also go to "Help" and do the
"Detect and repair" function and see if that fixes it. What
exactly do you need to do with the "shot"? Reason I ask is there
are other ways if it can't be repaired.

My adoboe reader 7 does not have the ability to select a part of a
page
and then print it. The "snapshot" function is not available. It is
dimmed. The object select function is there and appears to function
but
I can't find any info on it in the help menu. All I want to do is
select
a part of a page and print it.
Thanks for any help.
