Hi All,

I'm trying to convert epub to pdf, and the output has some issues when opening it in the mac preview app.

You can see in the screenshots attached that the text selection is not aligned, and the text is in an oppositive order. It makes it hard to highlight text and create notes.

I tried the default PDF convert config and some different approaches on the web without success. It happens with other input epub files too.

Any idea what I'm missing/doing wrong?

I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks!
