Bug 87449

it works for me under Win8.1 with LO 4.3.4.1

are you sure it was not a protected PDF?

What was the PDF reader you used? What is your operating system?

Windows7 64 bit
Adobe Acrobat Reader 11.0.10
LO 4.3.4.1

Note that CTRL-V works to paste the text, but the context menu has no paste opeion and the main menu (Edit->Paste) has it greyed out.



While on the topic of paste, is there any way to do a paste without the formatting? I always have to paste into Notepad then copy from there to lose the formatting. Would be nice to have the option :)

Use Google. Anyway, the option you look for is in the Paste Special dialog. Press Ctrl+Shift+V for quick access to it.

Hi, could you attach the .pdf you used so we can try to reproduce the problem. Thanks - Sophie

Copy a line from the pdf and try to paste into LO. You can do it with CTRL-V but not the menus.

still not confirming
I can paste anything from that pdf into LibO 4.3.5.2

Missing paste option in context menu - screenshot

I installed LO 4.3.5.2 and still have the same issue.

Just to confirm:

Win7 64 bit pro
LO 4.3.5.2
Acrobat 11.0.10

Uploaded a screenshot of trying to paste with right click.

try resetting the user profile ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile )

I confirm the "paste" item exists in my LibO 4.3.5.2 under Win8.1 x64

I renamed my profile user-old and a new one was generated. Paste is still missing from the menus.

Thanks for your suggestion tho.

Have you tried a different pdf reader ?

No.

Hi, tried with your pdf sample and was able to paste without problem from the contextual menu. I'm using a French version too. Sophie

Sounds like this has been a stickler to reproduce:
