Created attachment 82927 [details] The said pdf
After the recent introduction of the feature of using libkscreen, the behavior is also dependent on the display DPI since the layout recognition algorithm rounds coordinates to integers at 100% resolution. With the said PDF, the bug is reproducible e. g. at 72 x 72 dpi. I posted a patch on KDE Review Board. The patch also removes dependence of layout analysis on display DPI.
Did you assign that patch to the okular group?
Yes you did, ignore me :D
Git commit a80922d45e66605075a2838ee8836cfe8219bfe7 by Albert Astals Cid, on behalf of Jaan Vajakas. Committed on 25/02/2014 at 22:57. Pushed by aacid into branch 'master'. Improve XY Cut layout recognition code It was a simple bug in the XY Cut layout recognition code that made it too eager to see columns everywhere. Also removed the dependence of the layout analysis algorithms on the display DPI (introduced by the recently added feature of using KScreen) to make their behavior more predictable and reproducible.
