Sorry, Jean-Pierre, but would it be to much to as as confirmation either of these brief replies? 1. Yes, I can reproduce the issue. 2. No, I cannot reproduce your issue. Excuse me, but I don’t need a (machine-generated?) explanation (or something virtually indistinguishable from it) from the issue I’m just providing a sample. I think I know what I see on screen. From your reply, I guess that you may have reproduced the issue. I’m testing this with both 2026.02.12 13:41 and 2026.02.19 11:49 (both Linux64). In both cases, LMTX draws the wrong link area and LuaTeX draws it right. Results of misplaced link area are consistent with current (as packaged [and updated as of today] for “Fedora 43”) “Evince”/“Okular”, “MuPDF-GL” and “XpdfReader”. I think I might have hit a bug, asked for confirmation, so I’m not missing something and it could be fixed.
