Since I bought my Mac, I always use Force touch in Preview in order to get definitions about words, translations and so on, but now, I've noticed that this is not working.

Force touch itself is working fine (the trackpad reacts to my finger pressure), but the 'Look up' section that I normally used, is not appearing (it is only shown if I select one word, and with secondary click, select Look up).

This is working fine in Safari, for instance, but not in Preview.

It isn't fault of the pdf, I mean, it is not a scanned pdf where you cannot select nothing, but a generated pdf with selectable text.

I tried to figure out what is going on, and I tried to navigate thought Preferences and all menus, but I am not able to find where it could be enabled/disabled.

Anyone knows what could I do?

Thanks
