How do I avoid copying data from hidden rows/columns?

I have a spreadsheet that I'd like to copy over to another sheet EXCLUDING
any hidden rows/columns. However, short of individually selecting the
unhidden rows/columns, when I select the area to be copied it automatically
copies all the hidden rows/columns. Any shortcuts to help me?

Thanks!

After selecting the range, use Edit>Goto>Special and click on Visible Cells
Only, then copy
