Please note that is not possible to save the reading position inside a
PDF document. When you close, and reopen a PDF document, you will
be placed back at the beginning of the file.
Additional document information can be obtained by accessing
command menu item Files > Information. For example, you can learn
about bookmarks, and find out whether the document is copy protected.

5.10 Save PDF Document as a Text File.

For PDF documents that are not copy protected, it is quick and easy to
save the document as a text file (TXT). To do so, tap S3 for the menus
and select File > Save as text file. Like the save function in the word
processor app, a dialog opens where you can enter the file name and
specify the save location.
Note: copy protected PDF files cannot be edited or saved as a text file.

5.11 Highlight and Copy Text in a PDF File.

As an alternative to saving an entire PDF file as a text file, VarioUltra lets
you highlight and select a section of text to copy to the clipboard. The
copied text can then be pasted into another document.
While you can go through command menu options for highlighting and
copying, the quicker approach is to use shortcut commands.
1) To mark the beginning and end points of a block of text, first position
your cursor at the desired start position and enter shortcut command
B9+B2B3B5 to confirm.
2) Next, position your cursor at the desired end-position, and again
enter shortcut command B9+B2B3B5 to confirm.
3) Copy the text block to the clipboard with shortcut command c+B8B9.
4) Insert your copied text into another document with shortcut command
v+B8B9.
Note: it is not possible to edit or copy text from copy protected PDF files.
