I can't understand why generating a tagged PDF with MS word 2010 can result in files with text selection issues. When I export tagged PDF files with MS word 2010 I am having an issue where some part of the text can't be selected properly, as trying to copy the text to notepad will result in the selected word to be copied multiple times. Searching such text will also not work properly. In addition, if in such text there is a link, the link will not work, which is why this issue is very annoying. However, opening the PDF in any PDF reader other than Adobe reader wil not show this problem. It seems something related to the Span tag. Can someone expain me why the Span Tag can influence text selection/search in Reader and if this is a bug that will be fixed?
Thanks.
