Can't highlight text in a PDF in Preview--it just selects entire page
This is a seemingly simple task that never seems to work for me.
I've perused the WWW and followed all recommendations--see attached screen shots.
What am I doing wrong?
This one shows that the PDF file is un-encrypted and I have full permissions.
This one shows that it is indeed saved as a PDF file (and I'm not trying to edit an image).
And this one show that I've selected everything needed to be able to highlight text.
