--- Comment #41 from Dennis Olsson
... entering in the search field ... "ä" (umlaut "a" using German keyboard and keyboard settings) results in having the word "Start" on the first page highlighted, a word which does not really contains any "ä" (umlaut "a").
and comment #37:
Yes, I can reproduce that a search for ä matches both a and ä.
But that is a different problem, you *can* input the ä correctly, apparently the search algorithm in acroread is designed to match both ä and ä then. That is an internal acroread problem. Or maybe even a "feature". I cannot do anything about that. Please report that upstream.
As it turns out, this is actually a feature of Acroread -- It is even configurable! Go to Edit -> Preferences, select the Search submenu. Here you can find the "Ignore Diacritics and Accents", which per default is checked on, thus resulting in the observed search results. When checking this option off, the result is that the umlauts (ä, ö and ü) are now distinguished from their non umlaut (a, o and u) characters. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
