Upgrade StorageIssue: Cannot find numbers in ctrl/cmd+F search (Numbers displayed correctly, but not their code)
Hello,
for some reason I cannot find numbers in some of my pdf-documents when I search for them. However, this only happens in Zotero. It is not the case for the same document in another viewer.
So for example when I look for the number "2025" nothing shows up, even when it is clearly visible in the text. Seems to be an underlying code problem in the pdf/text that for some reason shows up in Zotero.
And when I copy the number »2025« from a document in pdf, it shows as »"$"%« when I paste it.
Or when I copy »Article 1, 5, 28, 29« it shows as »Article !, %, "*, "&« when I paste it.
Essentially this means when I want to search for the year 2025 in the document I have to search for this cryptic code "$"%.
Why would this happen?
Is there a solution to this?
