Bug ID: 121782
Issue Type: ENHANCEMENT
Summary: Enable local save capability in exported PDF forms
Classification: Application
Product: word processor
Version: AOO 3.4.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: save-export
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
PDF files generated from Writer and containing Form Controls are correctly
exported to PDF forms (File - Export to PDF - enable "Create PDF Form").
Some readers, e.g., Evince, support saving field contents from the PDF files
produced by OpenOffice (i.e., you can fill in the form and save its contents).
Adobe Reader, apparently, does not allow saving since it obeys some
restrictions.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Reader/9.0/index.html says: "If the PDF author has
enabled the local save capability on the form, you can also choose File > Save
As to rename the file and save the form with your information."
So the enhancement would be to enable this "local save capability". This issue
is related to https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=73696 but I
recreated it since the involved programs changed, and since I can now confirm
that saving form contents works in other programs.
