how to copy graphics from PDF to a file

[James Diehl]

In Ubuntu, the Ctrl + V pastes the contents of the clipboard.  Look in your add applications menu, there should be a PDF Viewer program that you can add.  If not, look in the synaptic pkg. mgr. and see if it's listed there.  I don't remember if it's a GNOME or a KDE desktop program.  In add applications, it might be listed as other programs, depending on which Ubuntu you are using(5.04, 5.10, etc.....).

There's a screwy - and very annoying - thing in Linux whereby the contents of the clipboard are not kept if you exit the application you copied them from, so Acrobat has to still be running when you do the paste. Is that your problem?

In acrobat reader, when I copy a figure from a PDF file,
it says that the image is copied to the clipboard. But 
how do I access that clipboard content. Is the gnome
clipboard hidden or something (unlike the kde clipboard).
Ctrl+v does not work.
