    Copying a picture in Adobe

    On occasion I want to copy a picture or and excerpt from an Adode document and I just can't figure out how to do it. Today it was a picture of a motherboard from here. Adobe says its page 11 but in the document its page 6.

    Is it possible? Would really appreciate it if someone could let me know.

    the default mode is drag mode (the hand) I think what you want to do this is text mode. Click the big T button that says text.

    I think you can then cut and paste.

    If that doesnt work, let me know. I know I have done it.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I switched to text mode, right clicked and my only option was to select all. Right click again and can now copy. But when I paste all I'm getting is the text, no images. Tried pasting in Paint and Ifranview.

    Thanks again. Now I know I can copy text, anyone have any ideas about the images?

    ahhh got it, the button next to the T... says graphic select.

    then drag an outline around a graphic... then right click and select copy.

    I don't seem to have that Graphic Select. Is there a way to add that button? I'm using version 4, so that could be why.
