[Skim-app-users] Copying from a PDF to Keynote and back ground color

[Nathan P. <nap...@fa...>]

	Hi all,

	I am copying some tables from a PDF article into a keynote  
presentation, and I have encountered a problem that I can't seem to  
resolve.

	If I copy the info from the PDF with Skim (or Preview), only the  
actually typeset info gets copied. That is, the black text gets copied  
to the clipboard with a transparent background. Then when I go to past  
into Keynote, the text is difficult to read (since I'm not using a  
light background). If I do the copy in AReader, a white background  
comes across, but the table's text comes out rather jagged and raster- 
ish.

	Is there a way to copy the info I want from Skim with a white  
background?

Thanks,
-Nathan
