[Okular-devel] Regarding okular generators

As you might be knowing that Poppler::Page::textList() generates text in
the correct order (i.e. left to right). Now poppler not only generates it
in the correct order but it also considers the layout, for example in a two
column document, it follows the column layout while indexing the text.

just of example consider the image above, see the selection, poppler
doesn't generate textList() in that order, it generates the textList() as
shown in the below image,

So my question is do all the libraries that the generators of okular use,
generate text in the proper order considering the layout ?
