Subject: [poppler] [PATCH] Fixup LaTeX composed characters
To: poppler@lists.freedesktop.org
Hi All,
Attached is a patch to address the previous problem I wrote about with
pdflatex-produced PDFs that contain overlapping-diacritics/accents.
This patch contains:
- a table of diacritic to Unicode combining character code-points
- if an overlapping character is detected checks whether the first (in
stream-sequence) character is in the table
- pops the diacritic off the word
- appends the diacritic to the character as a Unicode combining character
This does not fix \b{o} or \d{o} because TeX places them on the next line
(so aren't detected as overlapping).
Yes, this is an issue with pdflatex but there are 100,000s of TeX-produced
PDFs for which we don't have source for ...

All the best,
Tim.
