Hi,

I've clone the repo but for some reason text selection doesn't work on safari although works perfectly fine on chrome. Did someone have a similar issue?

I found that:

  • Standard selection methods don't work but text selection via JavaScript window.getSelection() does
  • PDF renders correctly
  • Text content exists in the DOM (word search works; doesn't highlight)
  • Individual text divs are empty despite text layer containing content

I've tried without success:

  • Changing textLayerMode from 2 to 1
  • Legacy pdf.js import
  • Disabling all custom .css overwrites
  • Disabling event handlers
  • Loading worker from local dir

Only things that work were:

  • creating totally new pdf viewer on pdf.js
  • running demo

Thanks in advance for any tips!
