Public bug reported:

I cannot select and copy text from a text postscript file. One of the
files that I have used to test:

    http://www.isle.org/~langley/papers/adapt.um99.ps

With pdfs, select text + copy is working fine.

After converting this ps file to pdf using ps2pdf, I can select and copy
the text when opening the converted pdf file in evince. But not from the
original ps file.

Evince 3.2.1-0ubuntu2
Ubuntu Oneiric
