After upgrade to 7.0.0-beta.83+066eda731 (64-bit), I can select text in a weird way.My cursor moves right down but the selected text grows to up and left.I recorded a gif but it shows an error when uploading it.And the console shows another error this time.

Cannot select text in certain PDF

I only see this problem during the loading of the PDF file in the Reader.Does the problem persist after waiting a longer time, after the PDF is completely loaded?
See the first post here, and the screen recording in this later comment.

I recorded a gif but it shows an error when uploading it.

You can upload it on a sharing platform (Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, ...) and add the public link to it here.

The PDF with problem is a small one, and it's loading doesn't take more time than other normal PDF in my case.After completely loaded, the problem still exists.

Here is my test PDF: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZYVbLiVCAsZ-D0ZHbRMbnYk9QnD_nK9i/view?usp=sharing, and this is my recorded gif: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iSHgN5uM4Zpxu21fT20q-e08BqsNCsw-/view?usp=sharing

Thank you, I can reproduce the second part (moving selection).
The double clicks and triple clicks are also not working, so it seems that the placement of the text is wrong.
The PDF is loading fine in the original PDF.js version https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/web/viewer.html

But I only observe the first error ( selectionRanges[0] is undefined) during the loading of the PDF file.If I wait for the loading to be finished (this takes longer than just seeing the text appearing), the error does not appear.
And I do not observe the second error when doing the moving selection.I had observed that error before, but I don't know how to trigger it in a repeatable way.

I also get a "selectionRanges[0] is undefined"-error when trying to highlight or select text in this PDF: https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-476-00023-1_4

188BET靠谱吗I can select text in this PDF in Firefox, but no selection is possible in Zotero.

Same problem with a specific PDF.Rolling back to 7.0.0beta.81 would be fine.

@zlwu188BET靠谱吗: You'd have to provide the PDF in question, either linked here or in an email to support@zotero.org with a link to this thread.
