@MAndree: You mean after compiling from source you have the same wrong
results as with 0.7.4? - What was the last version it worked with?

@JussiP: For me it is not yet clear how you can be sure it is an issue of hocr2pdf?
How should they now the correct font for selection to use when the OCR is not giving it?

Bug description:
After processing with Cuneiform for Linux 1.0.0 and hOCR to PDF converter, version 0.7.4 (should be the most current version) I get a sandvich pdf that looks nice until I select text.

See the sample 5AADFEE1-0000.* files in the attachment and the result.pdf.
The effect is shown in screen087.png

For another file (Test10pages.pdf) the effect is either worse - basically I cannot really select any more text to copy because I only can guess where to move with the mouse.

It looks like that the font size in the HTML is somehow not correct - I am not an expert, but this link might help you:
