            Bug ID: 376692
           Summary: Search function fails to find phrases split over two
                    lines
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: tcolley at livingdata.com.au
  Target Milestone: ---

When using the search function to find phrases in PDF's , I've found that
Okular fails to find phrases split over two lines. For example, if I searched
the following text in a PDF for "United States", it would only find the first
instance; not the other two.

   I love the United States. My friend said she loves the United 
   States too but wouldn't want to live there. I live in the Unit-
   ed States.

Since the need to find phrases whether they are split over two lines or not is
almost universal, I think this feature would be widely appreciated. Thank you!

I am using Okular 0.19.3 (KDE Development Platform 4.13.3) on Ubuntu 14.04,
which is the latest version currently available in the Ubuntu standard
repositories.
