Package: asciidoc Version: 8.6.9-2 Severity: normal Hello,
I am seeing the following strange behaviour when converting an asciidoc document into PDF using a2x: Backticks inside of a listing block are encoded to a different character inside the PDF. The following Bash code: HOST=`hostname` echo "$HOST" will become (when copied and pasted from PDF): HOST=‘hostname‘ echo "$HOST" See attached example files. The command I use to convert the file is: a2x -f pdf --dblatex-opts "-P latex.output.revhistory=0" example.txt I am opening PDF file using evince (if that makes any difference).
