I use 'evince' which is the standard PDF viewer with Ubuntu. I can
copy any text I want.  As far as I remember 'xpdf' also allows coping
text, but it uses the old 'middle mouse button' to paste the text.
Some older X11 apps don't support the usual KDE or Gnome copy and
paste style.  Simple highlight the text with the mouse, open gEdit and
Middle click (mouse wheel click) in gEdit.
