 * Hi, I work on this plugin in the premium version and I have a problem that I 
   would like to solve. I would like to select the text in the displayed pdf to 
   copy it. Is there a setting for this?

 * Hi [@barteksz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/barteksz/),
 * The PDF Embedder viewer does not currently support selectable or searchable text
   within the embedded PDF document. This is something that we are working on to
   add to the plugin in an upcoming update.
