An interesting thing: When I select the "Wrong" line in PDF from comment 2, BCDГ is changing not to ABC<display artifact>, but to ABC<non-selected letter Г>, and when I then copy-paste that line, I get "Wrong:BCD", without the last letter.
@José: Please, do something with this! Sometimes selecting text does really terrible things (take a look at 3 screenshots in this archive: http://ubuntuone.com/p/11Pa/, for example). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/39890 Title: characters change when selecting text Status in Poppler: Confirmed Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “poppler” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I have problems with the following pdf: www.lacim.uqam.ca/~plouffe/OEIS/citations/MAS-R9821.pdf When marking text some characters change.
