Is there any way to Select All on a PDF on an iPad?

If you are viewing a PDF on an iPad, is there any way to select all text? I tried CMD A with the external keyboard after highlighting a word, and it didn’t work.


Solution 1:

There are two ways on the iPad to select all text inside a PDF:

  1. Touchscreen: Select / highlight one word by long pressing and then tap on select all from the options that pop up.

  2. External Trackpad: Basically, the same approach as with the touchscreen, but instead of long pressing, you have tap with two fingers on the trackpad to select a word.
