I subscribe to two online newspapers, Investor's Business Daily and the
Washington Times. I download both as PDF files, which I view in Adobe Reader
9. Often there are cartoons in each paper that I want to save. With IBD I
can do this easily by clicking on the cartoon, which turns blue, then
right-clicking on it which lets me copy it, and then using Ctrl+V to paste
it into Paint in Windows XP. This works very well.
However, when I try to copy a cartoon in the same way from WashTimes, the
procedure appears to work the same way all the way through, right-clicking
on it again gives the choice to copy it, but when I try to paste it into
Paint all I get is a large black rectangle instead of the cartoon.
Anyone know how I can get this to work with the latter newspaper in PDF form
as it does with the former? I realize this is more likely an Adobe problem
than a Windows problem, but the relevant Adobe newsgroups seem to be
abandoned, I haven't been able to find anything about it on the Adobe site,
and I have no idea where else I could get the information.
Any help much appreciated.
