RANT:Cannot Copy Text From Product Quick Reference Guide. What ?

6 November, 2008 by Greg Ferro            Print Posting

I attempted to copy some text from the CPQRG today only to find it is copy protected. Why ? Is it a secret ? Don’t we want to sell things anymore ?
The PDF file of the Product Quick Reference Guide is protected from copying the text. Now I can’t use this information in my tenders and proposals without typing it out.

What are these morons playing at ? I can copy the text from the web page, I can copy the text from Cisco’s web site but I can’t copy from the PDF ?

Hello Cisco Marketing, (yeah, I know you read this … I can see you), can we fix this ?

    If you do get the attention of Cisco’s marketing dept, could you ask for some line breaks between paragraphs while they’re at it?

    Dear Cisco Marketing

    Stretch wants you to put some line breaks between paragraphs in the Quick Reference Guide. Hope you can help him out.

    Thanks in advance
