What can often help is to use Acrobat's add tags feature which is really designed for accessibility purposes but often straightens out text in the process: “Menu Advanced > Accessibility > Add Tags to Document”. After that you can copy whole chunks of text and they will (mostly) be contiguous. It's also good for when you try and copy two-column text that copies line for line from both columns.

Just googled to see where I read this and what do I find? Anne-Marie!!
