Bug Report - Copy/Paste special characters won't work on Mac
Copy/Paste does not work with special characters (used in Spanish, French, German, Danish etc.) anymore. Instead of letters it just leaves blank spaces in the document. Here is an example:
Copy in Acrobat Pro DC:
"Nous vérifions volontiers la possibilité d'une telle
production spéciale pour le cas individuel."
Paste in any other program:
"Nous v rifions volontiers la possibilit d'une telle
production sp ciale pour le cas individuel."
I have tested this on various different computers running macOS Monterey 12.1 and Acrobat Pro DC 2021.011.20039.
The same problem existed before and was addressed in this bug report in June 2021:

This is a very critical problem that needs to be fixed ASAP!
My agency is dependent on this standard feature, as I am sure many others are!
Thank you!

The last issue was solved with an update within three days. How is the progress so far?

I am having the same issue with Korean.
I am on macOS Catalina 10.15.8 and using Acrobat Reader DC 2021.011.20039
Text as seen in PDF: 권우 씨, 요즘 운전면허 학원에 다닌다면서요?
Copied and pasted: 씨, 면 학 면 ?I had this issue last year, fixed it, and now it is back. The fix issued in June 2021 does not work now, It is ridiculous that this is a recurring issue.
