Before Doc-view in emacs 23.1, I could display a PDF and use the mouse to select some text so that I could then paste the selection in another file outside emacs.
Now, with the new version of emacs, I view PDF files in Doc-view mode. In it I can no longer select portions of text with the mouse to copy/paste the selection elsewhere. What is the reason for this loss of functionality? Is there a work-around for it? More broadly, can one select an area of a displayed PDF file for copying without use of the mouse? (deconstructing a PDF to plain text seems another step that would have to be taken at the expense of the convenience of not using the mouse).
