           Summary: Search in tagged PDF ignores text in tags
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: PDF backend
        AssignedTo: okular-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: a.strich.b at web.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

PDF offers the opportunity to "tag" text, which is commonly used for complex
text displays like math formulas etc. Such text is "tagged" with a less visual,
more textual reresentation, like TeX notation. See
http://www.maths.mq.edu.au/~ross/5019-e-mmap.pdf for an example document. When
searching that PDF, the term "\setminus" should find all occurences of the "\"
symbol (of set theory).
This doesn't work within Okular. It works with Evince.
Select & Copy the "\" sort of works as expected, i.e. the text that is copied
to the clipboard is "\setminus" or at least part of that.
