Try it with some different files.  I suspect that you have
a bit-image of text encoded in postscript like tex/dvi
generates out of its own ugly fonts, not actual text.  If you
have normal text using postscript fonts you should be able
to select it and then the right-mouse menu will show the copy
function.
