I use okular mainly for converting PDF's into cleartext, and has written a lot of parsers for the output.
I've tried to use pdftotext (with the -layout option) instead, but it doesn't seem to produce the exact same format as okular.
I also prefer okular over a command-line tool for this job, since a lot of endusers should be able to use it easily.
I need to end up with the cleartext in the clipboard, and the only way that's possible, as of now, is to export to a file, open that file, and copy the content.
"edit → select all, edit → copy" produces a different format (discarding layout - see the url)
I would love to see a feature like "File -> Export -> To clipboard as cleartext" that produces the exact same format as the existing export to cleartext - It will save me a lot of time for sure!
While you're at it, please add some keyboard shortcuts to the export options. :)

Reproducible: Always
