@aunjaffery how you make that three dot like mac ?

[mtwebster]

This looks like a theme problem - try a different one maybe (gtk/application theme). I can't reproduce this with any Mint themes or Adwaita.

where @mtwebster i can find that i am new to mint can you please tell me .

[mtwebster]

You seem to have found it at least once, judging from the theme you're currently using.

Main Cinnamon menu -> Themes, select a different "Applications" theme.

I changed the theme to default. still the problem persist. I attached the PDF(highlighting in page 3). It works fine in Browers.

How was this highlighted originally? I get the same behavior in Evince, Atril and Firefox.. only chromium/chrome seems to render the text viewable.

Unfortunately I don't know that. probably Adobe Acrobat. I download that off the internet to study for exam.

Issue still persists in Linux Mint 22.3, Xreader 4.6.5.
Firefox browser also can't read highlighted text. I installed Okular 23.08.5 and it worked.

Issue
Behaviour in Xreader

Expected Behaviour
Okular correctly shows highlighted text
