The hyperref package attempts to handle the footnotes in a useful way, but the implementation seems wrong and I am looking for a way to fix it. Please consider the following MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\lipsum[2-4]\footnote{\lipsum[1]}
\lipsum[5-10]
\end{document}
Whenever I click the footnote mark in the document, it brings me to the footer, somewhere close to the related footnote, but the first line of the note is not visible -- as if the hyperref label was placed too low (bottom of the first line instead of the top). I believe that the whole footnote should be seen, like this:
However, what I get instead is (EDIT: compare it to the previous image so it makes some sense):
My usual toolkit is LaTeX+dvips+gs, dependent on the desired output format. I made sure to use no additional arguments for the MWE. NO SUCH THING (EDIT: I made a mistake here and noticed it thanks to @Ulrike Fischer) happens with pdfLaTeX. I have checked it with acroread and Evince. I failed to find any package or option that would change it, but I might just have missed something obvious. I would appreciate any help!
