Cut and paste Linux commands from PDF

Post by RJP_TIBCO »

We have a guide for a Linux-based program. We would like the user be able to cut and paste the example commands directly into their Linux command window. This works fine for short commands, but many of the examples have multiple arguments and options so they take up more than one line in the PDF output. Apparently this causes an issue with Linux and the command is not pasted correctly in to the command line. Any ideas on how to make this work? In the Flare Text Editor, it is clear that the commands have no break in them, just one continuous string.
Thanks.
