Since I don't want to pick up any bugs I always us [CTL}+[A] to highlight every thing that is a character and nne which are embedded.
Then I [ctl]+[C] to copy it to memory.
Then I open a notepad and use [ctl] [v] to past it there.
Then I can save it clean and open it with my wordprocessor and save it as a PDF without any EXTRA's
