Discovered bug while searching a PDF that had been output by LyX. This could be reasonably frustrating in very long documents. I'm fairly sure this bug was not present in kpdf on KDE 3, as I remember being able to search for words with ligatures in them when I first discovered ligatures and wanted to zoom in on a nice, PDF rendering of one. I will check to see if the bug is present in kpdf.
Not knowing how these things work but having previously given it a passing thought, I had always assumed that the text in the document must be converted internally by the viewing application into plain text version without ligatures and that this version is what gets used for copying to the clipboard or searching within the document. -- Okular can't find words with 'fi'. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
