User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0
Build ID: 20130215130331

Steps to reproduce:

I opened this document: http://www.oep.hu/pls/portal/docs/PAGE/LAKOSSAG/OEPHULAK_EBELLAT/EUELLATASOK/EU_KARTYA_20121024.PDF

Firefox version: 19.0


Actual results:

Text selection is not continuous, try to select the first paragraph, there are "holes" in the selection. Pasting the selected text causes multiple lines to be inserted instead of one. Please note that the pasted text is not missing the parts that are left out from the selection, so the "holes" are copied as well.


Expected results:

The selected range should be continuous, pasting the selected text should retain the original text structure, without additional newlines.
