adobe reader - PDF has garbled text when copy pasting - Super User https://superuser.com/questions/137824/pdf-has-garbled-text-when-cop...

Solution that worked for me:

7 • Upload the document to Google Drive/Docs

• Google will import it (as of 2013) as a PDF

• Open the PDF view and choose File > Open With > Google Docs

• It will take about a minute to export the document

The results weren't perfect, but got me 80% of the way there and provide me with enough text
that I didn't have to rewrite everything!
