      As of Opera 43,
      the issue listed in http://forums.opera.com/post/112895
      is fixed. Scaling is no longer an issue with high DPI monitor.

      But when scrolling the PDF pages with middle mouse wheel (or page down button), the pages appear broken, it must be an rendering issue. It is as if two parts of the page scroll at different speed vertically. It seems the rendering starts from the right edge to the left edge, so the break can happen anywhere in between. The problem is worsen depending on the content of the pdf, and/or the graphics in it.

      See screenshot to clarify:

          Since you have reported it, they probably are looking/will look into it.

            +1 on this issue. It is incredibly annoying to view PDF-s when part of document breaks and some text is sliced.

            I noticed that if you wait about 3 seconds after the glitch appeared, the glitch disappears (of course until you decide to scroll your mouse again).

              A workaround for the time being is to use pdf.js - I'm using this Chrome extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pdf-viewer/oemmndcbldboiebfnladdacbdfmadadm?hl=en

              I've also found that the in-built pdf reader is a bit blurry on my hidpi monitor. This extension renders things nice and sharp 🙂

                They just turned the PDF feature from somewhat usable to completely unbearable. How is this even possible ? I suspect they didn't mean to fix the pdf resolution at first, this means they accidentally fix it, so without testing, the dev team had no idea of this "very apparent" issue
