Bug: Resulting PDF does not allow text selection and text hightlighting

[clsven]

I installed the newest PDF XChange Lite Printer driver.

When I print web pages (from newest Chrome browser) then the resulting PDF file does NOT allow the selection or highlighting of text.

Sample web page:

https://www.thewindowsclub.com/best-free-slide-presentation-maker-software-for-windows-pc

When I switch to PDFcreator PDF printer driver then I CAN select embedded text and highlight it in the resulting PDF.

Whats wrong?

Is this a bug?

Kind regards,
