11 years ago I've noticed double-selection a few times on English PDFs generated by GhostScript (and not on an identical PDF generated from the same file using OpenOffice PDF instead). However, this PDF is created by InDesign...

9 years ago The link to the PDF is dead. Do you have a new link, @xavier114fch ?

9 years ago This is a similar document from another source. http://www.legco.gov.hk/yr12-13/chinese/panels/tp/tp_rdp/papers/tp_rdp0301cb1-595-3-c.pdf
The original text selection problem appears on Page 7 of the above PDF, but it seems the issue could not be reproduced by using the latest PDF.js version.

9 years ago The text selection is still a bit off for me, so we'll leave this open. Thank you for adding a new link!

8 years ago Text selection is now fixed after recent patches, so I'm closing this as fixed.

This is a Chinese PDF file. Go to page 4 of the file and you will get a series of paragraph labelled 1.1, 1.2 etc. Now select the first few characters after 1.1: "在2011年3月" and right click for the context menu. You will noticed that the text shown for Search Google becomes 'Search Google for " 年3月，"'. Copy and paste the selection also yields " 年3月，".
The correct characters are selected using Acrobat XI 11.0.2.
One more observation is that, in PDF.JS, selecting both "1.1 | 在2011年3月" shows double highlighting for the space character after "|" and under "在2011".
