8.2.9.2. Grab
The grab (hand) tool can be used to move the image within the window. Note that
the hand tool is non-functional when the image fits entirely within the window.
8.2.9.3. Selection
This tool is used to select an area of the image which can then be moved, cut,
copied, or pasted. Once an area is selected you can move it within the current image
by clicking, holding, then dragging it to the desired location. To duplicate a selected
area, hold the “Control” (Windows) or “Command” (Macintosh) key while dragging
the selection to a new location. Cut, copy, paste and undo are done using the
standard keyboard shortcuts. These include: “Control” (Windows) or “Command”
(Macintosh) key +X = Cut, +C = Copy, +V = Paste, and +Z = Undo. These
functions only apply to operations within the Image feature (e.g. you cannot copy an
area of an image to the “clipboard” to be pasted into another application or to
Acrobat itself).
