             Bug #: 43948
           Summary: Page::textList() sometimes returns text boxes out of
                    order when a page has tables
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: poppler
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: poppler-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: mark at qtrac.eu


Sometimes the Page::textList() method returns the text boxes out of order when
one or more tables are present (esp. if the page has 2 or more columns).

For example:

blah 1     blah 4
blah 2     Table 2
Table 1    blah 5
blah 3

The order I expect is:

blah 1, blah 2, Table 1, blah 3, blah 4, Table 2, blah 5

But the order I (sometimes) get is:

blah 1, blah 2, Table 1, blah 3, Table 2, blah 4, blah 5

I've tried with with 0.16 and 0.18.4.
