             Bug #: 45955
           Summary: copying text from a PDF document in evince adds a
                    newline
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: poppler
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: cairo backend
        AssignedTo: poppler-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: pacho at condmat1.ciencias.uniovi.es


Any text selected and copied from a PDF document in evince, both via Ctrl-C and
the right-click menu, gets a newline appended at the end when pasted into
another program. Happens with every single pdf document that I have tried.

As discussed downstream in:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402071

This seems to be caused by poppler-0.18.3 and can be fixed with the following patch:
