There are definitely differences among PDF files. I wanted to change
the background colour of displayed PDF files, and the code I was given
to do that worked with some, but not all of them.
Post by Justin C. WalkerPost by Danny Nora MoloneyI have tried using Skim to highlight and underline in a couple pdfs with no success. In other pdf's however, it works fine.
When I use the text selection the whole page turns yellow as if I just selected the entire page.
Is it the pdf I'm using?
I believe the answer is “yes”: if I open a .pdf that I know has been “scanned” (by a simple scanner, not by an OCR-type scanner), I get the same result: trying to select a single word gets me the whole page.
