hdante: the problem is that, despite appearances, the PDF in the bug description does not contain the word 'Über'. It contains the word 'Uber', without a diaresis. You can see this if you copy and paste from the document using any PDF reader, including adobe reader, google chrome, foxit, etc. There is a diaresis, but it is not really attached to the 'U'.
Even so, adobe reader and chrome can still find something if you search the document for 'über'. What they seem to be doing is ignoring any diacratic marks, so if you search for 'über' (or even 'ubér') it will find 'Uber'. I was proposing similar behavior for poppler. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/116453 Title: evince can not find ü in attached PDF To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/poppler/+bug/116453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
