How to get rid of "­"

When I paste text from an OCR'd pdf, I end up with a lot of "­"s (soft hyphens in original code).

eg "Supreme Court" becomes "Su­reme Court".

I'm trying to find a way to remove these without having to re-type each one.

InfoQube Find and Replace doesn't recognize them.

The only way I've found so far is to paste them into Word Pad to remove the formatting, but this replaces them with a dash, which still has to be removed. [update: doesn't work - the symbols re-appear later]

New PDF features

Upgrade list says: "New: Items: Multiple improvements to file indexing, including support for URLs to PDF files"

I upgraded and don't see anything different.  I can't find anything in the user manual.  Is there some reference that explains what these are?

I was really hoping it was going to be the ability to link to specific pages inside a PDF.  That would be a game-changer for me (I know it's a long shot).

Thanks, Wayne
