I'm not sure why it is. Perhaps because Liberation is a "non-standard" font, font exporters assume that recipients won't have it and thus export to graphics in order to guarantee formatting is preserved. If you use Fedora's style options to force sans serif (temporarily) to render as "monospace" then the PDF will have copyable text. Matt Flaschen
