There are some files in which I just can't select text. They're not protected and Adobe reader does it fine.
I've a couple of files, but too big to be posted here.
I put a sample here:

It takes a millennium to download your sample file. :-D
Report confirmed and has been forwarded to our developers. We will then get back to you asap.

Well, I said it was big... :)
I still hadn't tried the editor or I'd have extracted only one page.
I have another one if you want.

OK.
Or you can send in zip form to support@foxitsoftware.com
Thanks.

Because of size limitations ISPs place on message size (10Mb-20Mb), getting large sample PDF files to Foxit support can be difficult. Solutions include:
1. Email the URL of the original file, if possible. Or, post the test file on an FTP, HTTP, or WebDav server accessible by Foxit, and email them the link.
2. ZIP the test file. This can shrink PDF file considerably SOMETIMES. 7-Zip and Freezip both work.
3. Use YouSendIt.com - a. Type in the recipient, sender, and a brief note, and send your file. b. YouSendIt sends the recipient a small message pointing to the file on the YouSendIt server. c. The recipient downloads the file within 7 days. Downloads are very fast. Uploads are limited only by your upstream bitrate. YouSendIt accepts files up to 1G in size. One file per message.
(I'm not affiliated with YouSendIt, but have been satisfied so far.)
