I use Evince on Debian, where it came prepackaged with my Xfce desktop. It identifies itself as "GNOME Document Viewer 3.14.1", leaving me wondering if the next version would be 3.14.12 in Knuth-style numbering, but that's beside the point. Copying and pasting works perfectly from some documents, and imperfectly from others. Notably, it seems sometimes to be completely unaware of columns, and copy and paste text straight across the page, which leaves me staring at "zombie Ring Gates" and other gems. But it's generally good enough for my purposes. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
