Hello.. I am using below snippet

<pdf-viewer
          #pdfViewer
          [src]="vm.selectedFile.src"
          [rotation]="0"
          [original-size]="true"
          [show-all]="false"
          [fit-to-page]="false"
          [zoom]="(zoom/100)"
          [zoom-scale]="'page-width'"
          [external-link-target]="'blank'"
          [autoresize]="false"
          [show-borders]="true"
          [page]="page"
          [render-text]="true"
          [render-text-mode]="2"
          [text-layer-render]="{style: {background: 'yellow', color: 'black'}}"
          style="width: 400px; height: 500px"
          class="min-h-screen max-w-full"
          (pagechanging)="pagechanging($event)"
          (after-load-complete)="afterLoadComplete($event)"
        ></pdf-viewer>

I am able to select text when i opened through adobe reader and browser.
But when i previewed through pdf-viewer... i cannot able to select text! I attached sample pdf as well. Please help on this.

I've faced this issue in the past as well and the cause was that there was another element that received the events, by setting z-index on the viewer, the events are on the viewer.
