I have marked bug #39321 as a duplicate, since Evince developer Jose Aliste confirmed it (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=439070#c12). Also, he has made a patch for poppler that resolves the issue (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6923#c9).

[Bug 39890] Re: characters change when selecting text
I don't know about the plugin, it's a hand-made minimal example to show the developers that this line causes the problem: /Differences [65 /B /C /D /Gamma] When the text is not selected, the differences array is used, and evince displays BCDΓ When the text is selected, the differences array is not used, and evince displays ABC Notice the change from BCD to ABC. Acrobat (on Windows - not the Reader) read the attachment OK, but probably some things like the xref table are broken (I wasn't willing to count byte indices by hand!). Evince automatically reconstructs the table though, so other programs reading the .pdf or not are not the point here, I just tried to pinpoint when the problem occurs to make it easier for the developers to fix it. I can fix the xref table if it's required, but I don't think it matters... -- characters change when selecting text https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/39890 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 39890] Re: characters change when selecting text
This happens on not-properly-produced .pdf files, with custom encodings but without cmap (toUnicode) entries. Unfortunately, there are a lot of them out there! When selecting text, evince (erroneously) displays the characters that will be copied to the clipboard, instead of the original glyphs. Explanation: There is a PDF specification "feature", where one can declare that the character 'A' maps to the glyph 'B'. So if 'A' is written in a pdf text object, it displays as 'B' but it gets copied as 'A'! My English is poor, so I made a ***minimal*** .pdf that reproduces this bug. If you open it in Evince and select all the text, the line that contains BCDΓ should display ABC when selected!

In my document the € Euro-signs multiply when the text is selected. After the first original Euro-sign there follow 4 - 9 partly overlapping additional Euro signs. The original Text under the additional Euro-signs lies under white blocks, which seem to make room for the Euros.
