            Bug ID: 453032
           Summary: The last page should be allowed to scroll beyond end
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: PDF backend
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

# What is the expected behaviour?

Click a link (toward the last page) should take the user to the precise
position without being limited by scroll.

# Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Click a link which leads you to the lower position of the last page of the
PDF.
2. The poison will not be reached because pdf.js cannot let the user scroll
beyond the last page.

# Scenario

In most academic papers, the last page will be references & bibliographies. A
user can click the citations on articles to jump to them. Mostly they work, but
they cannot reach links at the bottom of the page. Scanning by eyes is annoying
and maybe disrupts the simple jump ↔ jump back.
Configuration:

# Sample pdf with links at the end of the page, it is open access:
https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3386330

# ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I also reported same bug to pdf.js
