GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 663130
Doesn't copy double quotes correctly
Last modified: 2018-05-22 14:23:00 UTC
Copying a paragraph containing quotation marks is not working correctly. The first quotation mark is always copied as a "1", the second as an "a". Copying the first passage of the second page of this pdf (http://dip.bundestag.de/btd/13/110/1311004.pdf) brings this: 1Kein Stein wird auf dem anderen bleiben!a Das ist die Quintessenz Roland Ber- gers über die Perspektiven der Informationsgesellschaft in seinem Gutachten für die Enquete-Kommission: 1Zehn Thesen zur Ökonomie der Informationsgesell- schaft am Standort Deutschland im 21. Jahrhunderta.1)
