Carsten, the problem is that there is no code that saves to a file. There should be two choices: * Saving to a pdf file itself * Saving to a separate pdf file (according to the pdf spec) But somebody for some unknown reason implemented writing it in the proprietary format into ~/.kde/share/apps/okular/docdata/ that makes okular unusable for filling forms. Nobody needs the function to save forms under ~/.kde -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdegraphics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521533 Title: Okular stores form data in a different directory (possible leak of private data) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kdegraphics/+bug/521533/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
