This worked until recently (broke within maybe the last two months).
Using Paypal web on Mac (10.14.x and 10.15.x), when I go to Paypal web, print a transaction, save it as PDF, I am no longer able to copy transaction details from the PDF receipt. Doesn't matter what browser I use (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc.). I am seeing the same behavior across multiple computers.
This works properly on all other major websites (e.g. Ebay, Amazon, Alibaba, American Express, Chase, etc.). This problem is specific to Paypal.
This is an issue because now I must manually type several long and complex information fields from a Paypal receipt. Try doing that over and over without making any mistakes! E.g. the "Transaction ID", "Invoice ID", tracking number, and "Seller info" data.
Has anyone else encountered this? Any ideas what might be causing it?
