Hello.
Is there a possibility to select text in the PdfViewer and get it from code? I'm using controls 2012 Q1 and I can't find such a functionality.
If not are you planning to include this in Q2 ?

Thx for replay.

Hi Pawel,

It is not possible to select text in RadPdfViewer at this point.
We have scheduled the text selection functionality for the Q2 release and if everything goes according to plan, we will also consider implementing an appropriate API.

All the best,

Hi!

I am currently using Q2 2013. Is it possible to copy text from the PDF Viewer with text formatting?

Hello,

RadPdfViewer does not preserve the text formatting when copying. Moreover, Silverlight does not have a rich text Clipboard so even if the formatting was preserved, it could not be used.

I hope this answers your question.
