I've seen several posts on the error message that copying has created an internal error and somethign to clipboard. I've noticed that it doesn't usually matter; I can still copy and paste. Do I assume that this relates to XP and began when an update 'improved' security? It only started a few weeks ago for me. Copy and paste used to work well. Have tried to repair. It happens to all pdfs.

I'm also getting this error message, namely: "There was an error while copying to the clipboard. An internal error occured.", using Acrobat Pro 8 on Windows XP. It doesn't always appear and if you try again once or twice, it works fine. Very odd...

I get this message very often too. Extremely annoying. Using Win 7 Pro 64 bit and Adobe Reader X 10.1.1.
