Text in PDF files in weird location
in progress

When I try to copy text from an PDF it appears only in the top left of the page. When I open the PDF on System I can copy normally. See screenshot.

The ticket is in progress. This means that we are actively working on it.

Highlighting PDF text doesn't match the Document

In the PDF viewer, when you upload any document, the text that is highlighted seems to follow a set styling and does not adapt to the PDF itself. This makes highlighting text in uploaded books and other documents very annoying

Hi, I wanted to ask if there is an update to this issue yet?

Of course. Sorry for the late reply. I've only just got around to it. After the download from capacities the text is back in the right place. I have attached 3 files: one is the original pdf, one is the same downloaded from capacities and one is a screenshot of my problem (the original screenshot was on an mac, the screenshot now is on windows)

Thanks for the report. Could you please share an example PDF where this is happening? Thanks!
