Lualatex output not working right with synctex in TeX Live 2023 (Win)

[Benedikt Wilde]

I can also confirm this issue. It is different from the bug in TeX Live 
2021, though. Using the test document from last time (attached) I am 
pointed to an empty part of the page, about two thirds down and 
apparently (according to the marking in the TeXstudio/TeXworks PDF 
viewers) shifted to the left. In large documents I find other (still 
wrong) locations, too, especially when seeking figures, but that spot 
about two thirds of the way down the page seems to be the most common.

Best
