Just to clarify: my issue is the user interface. I feel I've been mislead when the app say's it didn't find a word, where in reality no search took place.
Okay, the example: I printed this bug report page, scanned it with simple-scan, now it's a PDF. Open with Evince, ctrl-f and search for "pedro". Result is "0 found". This really is easily reproducible by anyone. I think someone with a good knowledge of the technicalities of PDF should be able to quickly assess this and determine if it can be fixed. ** Attachment added: "ScannedDocument.pdf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/49835332/ScannedDocument.pdf -- Find (ctrl-f) can be used even though the pdf-file has no searchable text. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/590834 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
