Hello,
Thanks for writing. We will fix it ASAP.

I have the same problem. I just installed the latest version from Foxit.com, thinking about giving a try.

It's not just one pdf file that has this problem. When I searched online for solution and found that this problem was addressed back to 2005. It's really surprising to me ..

I'm using Windows XP SP2. I attached the sample pdf file. If this bug cannot be resolved, I will need to remove this software, even though it is much smaller and faster than Acrobat reader.

Our developers are working to fix it now.

This is a pretty significant problem, folks. Seems to me the product should not have been released until it was fixed.

I still have this problem : WinXP SP2 + Foxit reader 2.0 built 1606.
The text I tried to copy/paste is not well paste. I have no space, some letter are missing ...
If you can have a look at this because it is a kind of critical bug.

to reproduce, take any pdf doc in google , for instance :
http://www.jimmunol.org/cgi/reprint/168/11/5397.pdf

copying text doesn't work properly.

regards

It also happens for me when trying to copy text from http://www.jimmunol.org/cgi/reprint/168/11/5397.pdf using 1606 on Win 2000. I wonder if Foxit Reader has problems on documents with columns? I can successfully copy text, including the spaces, on other documents I've tried that don't include columns.

FYI on this pdf files:

http://www.jimmunol.org/cgi/reprint/168/11/5397.pdf

The words are copied without spaces in this versions:

Foxit Reader 2.0 1606
Foxit Reader 2.0 1516

The words are copied with spaces in this versions - without any problem:

Foxit Reader Pro 1.3 1621
Foxit Reader 1.3 1621

I sure hope that it can be fixed SOON!

one is copy text without spaces, the other one is highlighted text

I have the same problem (german text). Can I somewhere get 2.0 930 again? That version didn't have the problem. I should have made a backup before installing 1606, but who thought something like this would happen?

Search the forum. You will find a link for downloading old versions.
