        ReportedBy: alvaro.aguilera gmail com


Version:           0.6.3 (using 4.0.3 (KDE 4.0.3) "release 19.2", compiled sources)

I find Okular's yellow highlighter very useful, something missing however, is the ability to recognize a layout with columns. Almost every PDF I read has such format and Okular forces me to highlight line by line, instead of allowing me to mark the whole paragraph.
