Created attachment 172831 [details] PDF document showing Bug Highlighter Bug: Fails to select last letter for the last word on a line SUMMARY Okular tools like Highlighter fail to select the last letter of the last word on each line (in the 2nd column). One such pdf document is attached: the bug pops up in a few more pdf-documents. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open attached pdf document; 2. Browse e.g. to page 9; 3. Select highlighter tool and try to select the last word on any of the lines in the 2nd column; OBSERVED RESULT Highlighter tool misses to select the last letter. It is not possible to select the last letter even if the mouse is dragged as far right as possible. It is possible to "fake" the selection of the last letter by "selecting" the start of the next line: but this reduces productivity quite a lot. EXPECTED RESULT Enable selection of last letter of the last word on the respective text-line. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: 10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The bug affects both the Highlighter tool, as well as the Line and Squiggle tools. There is a workaround, albeit quit frustrating when the user wants to select the last word over-and-over again.
