Weird bug when copy pasting text from pdf

I noticed an error that occurs when i copy paste from the pdf version of my document. There is a sentence that says “engage in conflict” and if i copy it and paste it in another document it says “engage in conflictconflict”. I’m not sure how serious of an issue this is and I wondered if anyone has any idea of what is causing this, and how it can be solved.

First of all I have not encountered this behaviour. There is no detail all so you probably need to:

  • Supply a sample pdf from which any identifiable material has been removed
  • Say what OS and LO version you used to create the pdf
  • Say what sort of PDF is it? Hybrid, PDF-A, etc.
  • Say what OS you are using when you read the file.
  • Say what pdf reader you are copying from?
  • Say what you are pasting into
  • Say what clipboard manager you are using if any

We still might be unable to help but we would be unable to help in a more informed way :slight_smile:

Are there some font effect or style applied on conflict?
