: How to make copied text appear in the correct order? I have a PDF document with text created from a Photoshop file. Problem: When I do "select all text" in Acrobat and then copy-paste it into
I have a PDF document with text created from a Photoshop file.
Problem:
When I do "select all text" in Acrobat and then copy-paste it into a text editor the text is pasted out of order.
This is somewhat expectable because of the multiple text layers in the original Photoshop file.
Question:
How can I tell Photoshop the desired order of the text layers when creating the PDF file?
The layers are stacked in the correct order in the layer panel in Photoshop. I was hoping that was the issue, but it's not. Is there any other way in which I can specify the text order?

Turns out the order of the copied text in the PDF is the same as the order in which the text layers were created in Photoshop.
Solution:
Create a copy of the Photoshop file.
Delete the text layers from the new file.
Copy the text layers one by one from the old file into the new file, in the correct order.
Now if you export to PDF and copy the text from there it will appear in the correct order on the clipboard.
