@michael.amherst Zotero PDF reader currently doesn't support highlighting rotated text.
-
This will probably be fixed in Zotero 7.
-
@kghadge Try another PDF file. Some PDF files have issues with text layer or don't have it at all.
-
We'll fix it — thanks. Although it seems the issue isn't new.
-
@jdpipe @mjthoraval Does it work better if you open a PDF file in Firefox built-in PDF reader (Zotero uses the same reader)?
-
There are technical issues why this can't be added to right-click context menu, but you can use Cmd-Control-d or Force Touch over the desired word.
-
This is a bug and will be fixed in future Zotero versions. Thanks for reporting.
-
@samvimes Actually, for most PDFs hyphens are already properly removed. Unclear why there are spaces left for this PDF, but we'll investigate.
-
Could you make a video demonstrating the issue?
-
We'll fix that — thanks.

1) Does Zotero crash completely? 2) Not possible to provide a Debug ID? 3) Have you tried to disable extensions? 4) Are there cases when you can successfully copy annotations with images and that doesn't crash Zotero?
-
Is that only for scanned PDF files?
-
I guess we can increase the limit. The input field only allows 16 characters currently.
-
Does that happen only with scanned or with all PDF files?
-
Have you tried to disable extensions?
-
Yes, this is by design. It behaves the same way as dragging a note annotation into Zotero note — you can't go back to the note annotation.
-
@shlnlna Does it work better if you open the same PDF file with PDF.js viewer?
-
Which operating system do you use?
-
We'll fix this — thanks.
-
You can send one of the chapters to support@zotero.org with a link to this thread. We'll try to improve that in the future versions of Zotero. Are you using Zotero client or iOS app?
-
This should be fixed in Zotero 7.
-
At the moment it's not possible. Why do you want to do that?
-
We'll try to fix that. Thanks for reporting.
-
Which popup do you have in mind? Can you make a screenshot?
-
The second view currently doesn't support many features and is read-only. But we're working to improve this.
-
@davbauman And if you open those PDF files with another PDF viewer, they are fine? If so please send an example PDF to support@zotero.org also including a link to this thread.
-
Usually this happens when a scanned image has too large resolution or some non-standard stuff. Zotero 7 should improve on that. If you have Firefox, you can try to open the file with its built-in PDF reader and test if the problem remains (Zotero P…

@alexander.winkler That will be fixed in future Zotero versions.

[JavaScript Error: "Win error 8 during operation allocate on file … (Not enough memory resources are available to process this command. 1) How big is the file? 2) How much memory your computer has? Also try to disable plugins and restart Zotero.
-
Ok, I can reproduce the issue on Windows 11. I guess the PDF file doesn't have fonts embedded, and falling back to default fonts fails on the current Zotero version. Most likely this will be fixed in Zotero 7.
