<![CDATA[Poppler::Page::textList() is not properly ordered in some pdf files]]>Hello,

When I use the function Poppler::Page::textList(), I find that the QList<TextBox *> is not stored in a proper order. I think this might be the pdf script style problem.

There is a comment above Poppler::Page::textList() tells that,"For text written in western languages (left-to-right and up-to-down), the QList contains the text in the proper order."

How can i solve this problem. Any help is really appreciated.

Thanks
Ansif

I think the best place for that question would be poppler's mailing list and/or IRC channel
