The pdf contains a link from the footnote marker to the footnote. If I disable this link, it works. It also works if I don't produce a pdf 2.0.

The pdf has been made with a current LaTeX and

\DocumentMetadata{uncompress,testphase=phase-III,pdfversion=2.0}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
abc\footnote{a footnote}
\end{document}

test-utf8.pdf

@u-fischer thanks for reporting this issue. It was fixed in the latest dev build 1.25.1

@MaximPlusov Thanks. But I guess the latest dev build is now 1.25.3?
