What's better about this solution is it allows you to select as usual within the highlighted section without turning highlighting off. This is even better than toggling highlighting on/off and requires one shortcut, but two actual key events for on then off: I hadn't seen the answer given by cryptdecrypt, which is to enter Read Mode, whatever that is. For what they charge, that is unforgivable.
They apparently don't have human factors engineers or test their products with REAL users. Then again, I find all of Adobe's user interfaces seriously lacking. That's it… Simple enough but it really shouldn't be required. Now isn't that an intuitive shortcut? Now you can select down to the letter. The correct solution, that is somewhat of a kludge, not to mention a PITA, is to temporarily turn off highlighting via a keyboard shortcut (OS X-can't find ones for 'Doze, sorry): I tried using tex23's ALT-SHIFT but on the OCRed document I am using, it selects random groups of letters column-wise. You can hold down the SHIFT key and select but the selection is uncontrollable. I guess we are basically without any REAL support here. I can't believe that no one answered this yet in almost 4 years. Why can I not spend the time while reading to highlight important passages and then EXPORT/COPY THE COMPLETE LIST OF HIGHLIGHTED PASSAGES? Again, this is what people want to do. Once you've highlighted important text passages, the Comments List shows you each highlighting location with a timestamp as an entry in the list, but NOT THE HIGHLIGHTED TEXT! What is the point? For what percentage of Acrobat users is that the desired functionality? Why can one not simply right-click any highlighted area and select copy from a context menu? THAT IS WHAT PEOPLE WANT TO DO. In a business context, that almost always involves repurposing the content in other software outside the PDF rather than only sharing the annotated PDF with others. Usually, it's because you want to draw attention for yourself and others to key phrases. When reviewing a document, why does someone go to the trouble to Highlight text in the first place?
