Broken page taken from the pdf using pdftk

The glib API returning text and rectangles actually stops about two thirds of the way down the page. If you try and select them in evince it picks out one character for each line at the bottom of the page. I've attached a small png screenshot.

Chrome is correctly able to select all of the glyphs right the way across the page.

Tested with master on Jan 14, and evince "3.4.0, Using poppler/cairo (0.18.4)".

Perhaps the page is interesting because it contains a large number of glyphs (55,642).

Comment 2 Peter Waller 2014-02-07 10:36:54 UTC
To clarify, this is a problem for me because I can't get access to the glyphs through the API at all.
