You can mark texts in Safari or a PDF document with a certain touch gesture on the iPad. You can copy the highlighted content and paste it anywhere again. We show you how it works.
Mark texts with the iPad
- Tap the area to be marked in the text with your finger for approx. One second. Now a menu appears (see picture) with the options "Copy" and "Look up". You will also see two blue dots to the left and right of the highlighted word. You can drag these points as far as you like and decide which text area you want to mark.
- After you have selected a text area, you can select the "Copy" option.
- Navigate to any app on the iPad - for example, the note or mail app. If you click on the text input field here, a menu opens. Here you select the "Paste" item to paste the previously copied text.
