[Bug 49631] Re: Copy text from a PDF document and paste it, display strange characters
I have tried the same thing with Ubuntu Hardy and I can confirm that now the problem is resolved. With Gedit I have created two PDF files: one with the Print to file option, and one with the PDF (cups-pdf) option The first one is created by cairo 1.6.0 (http://cairographics.org) The second by GPL Ghostscript 8.61 Both PDF files are now good. I have copied from both of them and pasted in Gedit, and the text is perfect. -- Copy text from a PDF document and paste it, display strange characters https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I've tried this PDF with Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 as well, and Adobe Acrobat reader also produced weird output when copy-pasting. So the bug probably occurs when gEdit exports to PDF, and not in Evince when viewing/copy pasting it! -- Copy text from a PDF document and paste it, display strange characters https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
