Adobe Reader is a pretty famous tool useful for opening Adobe PDFs (PDF stands for Portable Document Format). Usually, PDFs are created using Adobe Acrobat software. Adobe Reader will not allow you to create the PDFs; it will allow you to view, print, and manage the PDFs.
Adobe Reader provides a variety of tools to help you to find the information in PDFs. One of the interesting tools is the Select Tool. This tool allows the users to select the data (image or text) from the PDF document. It allows you to select the particular text, a block of text, an image, a complete PDF document, or a rectangle area from the document. To use this tool first we need to select the tool.
Step 1. Open the document in Adobe Reader. First, we need to select the Select
Step 2. Click on the Tools menu.
Step 3. Click on the Select & Zoom menu item. It will display the Select & Zoom sub-menu.
Step 4. Now click on the Select Tool menu item.
Once you select the tool, the cursor will change to an arrow shape; when you move the cursor over the text it will change to an I-beam shape to allow you to select the text; when you move the cursor over the image the cursor will change to crosshairs shape to allow you to select the image.
To select the rectangular area in the document, first, you need to press and hold the Alt key and move the mouse pointer. When the mouse cursor changes to a rectangular area shape, hold the left mouse button and select the area which you want to copy/select.
