Description Horst Prote 2012-02-12 02:38:41 UTC

The same problem as for evince (Bug 402071):
Copy paste from a PDF document using epdfview results in the addition of a
newline character to the end of the pasted text. This is possibly seen as a
convenient feature, but in reality more often than not results in the need to
delete the new line.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a PDF in evince.
2. Select some word.
3. Paste it somwhere

Actual Results:  
The pasted text is altered with the addition of a new line.


Expected Results:  
Copying and pasting text from a PDF document should result in the text selected
from the PDF being included in the new location without alteration.
