SUMMARY
When starting Okular from command line with "--find" parameter, if there is a diacritic character as "--find" input, the result search will show a missing character

1. okular SomeFile.pdf --find "éxãmplë"

"?x?mpl?" is the Find input

EXPECTED RESULT
"example" is the Find input

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
OS: ArchLinux

Qt Version: 5.15.1-3 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I use Okular in synergy with Recoll, so it's important that the Find input to be preserved.
