ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Albert Astals Cid 2021-08-03 21:37:51 UTC 
all files or a particular file?
Comment 2 Armin Mohring 2021-08-04 04:37:04 UTC 
This affects all PDF files, which I have tested.
Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2021-08-04 20:28:52 UTC 
That's very strange, are you on text selection mode?
Comment 4 Armin Mohring 2021-08-05 04:46:58 UTC 
I am not text selection mode.
But this should work, like in Acrobat Reader.
Comment 5 Albert Astals Cid 2021-08-05 21:27:25 UTC 
> I am not text selection mode.

Then text selection obviously doesn't work.
