Description graf_hh 2013-01-30 18:13:33 UTC
When selecting a rotated text in a pdf document in portrait mode, the text extracted extracted to the clipboard is in reverse order. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. load any pdf-file from the arXiv.org portal 
2. open with kde's okular
3. select vertical document-id (arXiv: ...) on left hand side of first page to extract text
4. in clipboad the selected text appears in the wrong (reversed) order
Actual Results:  
text extracted in reversed order

Expected Results:  
rotated text should be extracted in correct order

Same procedure in Acrobat Reader worked correctly.
Also bug was not present in previous version which was bundled with openSUSE 12.1.
Bug is probably related to already reported bug # 300400.
