Bob,
I think it is only a problem if you wanted to use the info in another
document for publication or distribution. I don't believe using a copy for
his stated purpose is copyright infringement. It's kind of like being able
to copy a video from TV for your own time-shift personal viewing, but not
alright to make copies to distribute for personal gain. Same with software,
you can make backup copies but you may not re-distribute, etc.
There is a good web site that has copyright usage info somewhere but I
don't remember the link anymore.
