Hi there It may not work in Preview, but I just tested the ability to copy text using PDf Pen Pro. I couldn't figure out how to select using shift down arrow, but I did command A and copied to the clipboard. Then I went to TextEdit, and pasted it into a file. It worked, although I have no idea if it kept the formatting. It talked fine, though.
I used a short form to test this. If you want, I can use a longer form to test it and see what happens.
