I recently encountered the same type of problem. I was told by an expert in
the field that the PDF I was trying to copy from, was created with a font
that is only viewable or printable with certain Adobe post script fonts.  I
got around this buy using an OCR program from Abbyy.com and then exported
the "read" text in a font that I could use in other programs like MSWord
etc.
