            Bug ID: 93146
           Summary: Search doesn't work correctly with some text format
                    (LaTeX-related)
           Product: poppler
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

Sample PDF file, zipped

Text search doesn't work properly with text that is formatted in a certain way.
If such text is copied, it appears to contain spaces, even though it probably
shouldn't.

Open the attached sample PDF and search for "tcsetattr" - no results. Search
for "tcgetattr" - one result found on page 38, should find two.

Also try to search for "struct stat" on page 13 - no results. But searching for
"struct s" works on the same page.


Tested with Okular 0.23.2 and poppler 0.37.0-1 from Arch Linux repository. Also
tested with Evince 3.10.3 and unknown poppler version on Ubuntu.

Search seems to work correctly in PDF X-Change Viewer on Windows.
