Title:
Does not handle glyphless fonts, as used by tesseract
Status in Poppler:
New
Status in poppler package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
[Impact]
PDF documents OCRed with tesseract show black boxes when selecting text
[Test case]
Run ocrmypdf on a pdf, open it in evince, select some text. You should not
see black boxes.
[Regression potential]
The patch is minimal invasive and only changes the behavior for the tesseract
glyphless font.
[Other info]
Upstream is unhelpfully refusing to merge the patch in
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/merge_requests/208 because it's
not abstract enough for them (as it only handles tesseract).
