Oh, boy. The word gets out and the panic sets in.
The security flaw in Reader 5.1 only has to do with XML forms.
Are you sure the document you're trying to copy from allows copying and
pasting text? Check the security settings...it may be someone has restricted
that function.

Subject: Re: [PDF-Basics] Acrobat 6 and copying PDF to WORD-.HELP!!!
I just experienced a perplexing thing with the Adobe Acrobat 6.01 just
installed on my computer after I read that 5.01 I did have had been found to
have a problem that could allow someone to break into a computer which has
it installed.
> I chose this email with the .pdf link to copy and save the article
referrenced, and after the Acrobat reader 6.01 popped up and I accessed the
article, I tried Select>Copy to Clipboard > then attempted to paste to a
WORD document. What I got was nothing but lines of little squares. What
happened to the copy/paste function of this Acrobat Reader?
>
> I didn't have that problem in older versions. Any advice on how to solve
this?
Thanks for any help,
Joan Archiba
