Is this something that was changed? I used the Dolphin preview panel to successfully view the contents of PDF files without having to open them, to sort and rename the files. This worked perfectly until sometime in 2023, when I upgraded to Kubuntu 22.04. Since then, it has not worked properly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
