Hey don't knock the invisible characters in PDFs - that's a feature. I just
recently wrote something in LiveCode precisely to generate PDFs containing
invisible (but search-able, select=able, copy-able) text.

Adobe does a LOT of crap when copying to the clipboard. Copy text from an OCR'd
PDF sometime and paste it into a Livecode field. You may find the number of
characters is more than are visible. This is what inspired me to write my
cleanAscii function which filters out all chars before 32 and after 126.

Scratch taht, its the modified date timestamp that changes.
I will try using regex to get the ID and check it to see if the clipboard
image really changed or not.
should be a safer and quicker workaround...I think all adobe software does
this when copying to clipboard.
