Description Looserof7 2016-08-09 00:06:58 UTC
When ever I try to Highlight a text in pdf, it is being improper, and what I have noticed is, it is dependent on books, which I open.
I'm including 4 screenshots of different books, Where highlighting is different for each book.
There was already one bug reported about text being disappeared after highlighting.
I have uploaded all the screenshot pdf files here 
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bw1lzCYKRpNqLXZxUXotS0tNbXM

all respective files named can be looked in screenshots.
I use manjaro, standard edition

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.It is dependent on file.

Actual Results:  
Improper highlighting for different books.

Expected Results:  
Consitent highlighting for all type of books.

I'm including a screenshot about my System.
This is Critical because it made me to lose all pdf text in one file.
I think highlighting is a important feature.

Sorry for the delay!, as I'm far away from internet, I was unable to reply.
There was no problem with this and fourth screen shots, but I mean they were different.
I did find a work around, with this command, where I was able to even do highlighting properly, without any loss of data. Command is:'qpdf input filename outputfilename'. I was able to open the same book in which I lost the data, without any problems, I don't known anything about qpdf, it just worked.
