You can't always copy and paste from a PDF doc, depends on if it was scanned (no copy paste) or generated (may have copy paste)

Please update to Firefox 19 Update Firefox to the latest release

It is a generated pdf doc. I can highlight the text, but as soon as I let go of the mouse button, the highlighting disappears. If I right-click the mouse, there is no copy/past option. Only a select, zoom and marque tool option.
