Description: German "Umlaut" symbols (ä,ö,ü) cannot be pasted correctly from the clipboard when they are taken from a PDF file. The same symbols can be copied/pasted correctly in any other application that I tested. For example: Kate, VSCodium, Joplin, etc. When the PDF file is opened in the browser (Firefox) the German "Umlaut" symbols can be copied correctly, but if the PDF is opened on "Okular", the symbols cannot be pasted into LibreOffice. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download the following PDF File > https://www.amboss.com/media/de/m2-lernplan-f24 2. Open the PDF in Okular 3. Go to page 3 and copy some words with the German "Umlaut" (ä,ö,ü). For example: "Dyslipidämie" 4. Paste the word into LibreOffice (Calc, Writer, etc). 5. See the error (The German Umlaut is not shown properly). Actual Results: The German Umlaut (ä,ö,ü) is not shown correctly. Expected Results: The German Umlaut should be pasted correctly in LibreOffice, as in any other software. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 7.5.9.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 50(Build:2) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.6; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US 7.5.9-2 Calc: threaded ----- The error also occurs on "LibreOffice Fresh" installed from the Official AUR Repository on Arch Linux (Endeavour OS - KDE). The error also occurs when LibreOffice is in German (with the German package installed from Arch Repository). Moreover, if the OS is in German, the same bug appears. It seems a problem specific to LibreOffice because any other software can paste the Umlaut correctly from that PDF file.
