I first tried your example provided earlier in this thread - I was able to copy/paste the text from the resulting PDF. Now that I've tried it a few more times, there are some formatting issues here and there when using cups-pdf. Two other methods; 1. Install this extension for FF: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4738 Cons: you have to sign up for a third-party service Pros: free (as in no money), easy to use, formatting is pretty good. 2. "Save As" from FF (format: Web page, complete). Open the file in Openoffice, export PDF. Cons: formatting issues - extra white space added Pros: truly free Both additional methods work form me (as does cups-pdf) - producing PDF files with copyable text.
