Hello, Im experiencing a problem with the PDF-reader. Whenever I try to select or mark some of the text in the document, the highlighted text shifts far to the side of the page. I have tried different changing up the pdf-reader, but nothing seems to help. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to fix this, or is this a bug? ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/appfarm/original/2X/2/21b9cf7bf9f2a6bb2b2697e772cd5751f3021e02.png) ---
