I want to do something whereby I have a PDF with text, but when I copy and paste the text from the PDF, to word, I want something completely different to be pasted. So if there is something like 'Hi it is me' on the PDF, in word it will have garbage or some random characters. How do I do this?

Hi,

It may have something to do with the Font Style in word when you paste the copied text from the PDF file. Try changing the font style from word to Arial then try to copy and paste that file again. Also you may need some plugins for your Word software inorder for you to copy and paste text from a pdf file to word
