I need to produce a PDF with Cyrillic text such that it could be copy-pasted to other files.I have the requirement to use the font style and font size set by \fontsize as provided in my MWE, see below, and pdflatex.
This is what I get when I copy the text:
ЖирныйтекстÎáû÷íûéòåêñòNote that I can copy the text in bold, but cannot copy the text that follows.What should I do to produce a PDF such that I can copy Обычныйтекст?
MWE:
