I'm using Acrobat reader version 7.0, Win XP, and I have Chinese
language support installed on the PC (also Russianm Arabic, French,
German).  I can copy e.g. from Chinese text in newsgroups into Word,
Outlook etc.

I find that when I try to copy Chinese text from a PDF, it won't let me
select text.  Same applies to Russian and Arabic.  But I am able to
select German, French etc.

What is the secret of enabling multi-language text selection in Acrobat
Reader?
