Extracting PDFs


Website Feedback


I've selected PDFs from the APs before and just cut and paste them into word, where I could print them out without all the numbers/etc.

I just tried to do that with the second instalment of Serpent's Skull (AP38, I think?) and it wouldnt work - it selected the whole page, with all the text but not the image.

Have things changed? Or have I maybe unknowingly upgraded my software or something?

I've checked the file for AP #38 and it appears to be fine. I attempted a copy/paste with that volume and one of our later volumes and the behavior was the same (select all, copy and paste): this results in a text only result. It's possible that a software update may have altered this behavior, but nothing has changed on our end.

Also, make sure you've selected the text selection tool and not the snapshot tool.


Thank you both. I'm not sure what happened but normalcy has now returned. :/
