Thanks for reaching out VS_Koladiya,


It sounds like you're having some trouble with how your selection is displayed when viewing a PDF file. We can help.


Since you've already updated your iPadOS, let's go ahead and Restart your iPad and see if there is any improvement. If not, you can connect with Apple directly to report the behavior using either Get Support or if you're in a region without direct support options, you can also Contact Apple for support and service.


Hope that helps.


Take care.
