[Bug 1263784] Re: PDF form data is blank when printed with lp
cups-filter's pdftopdf before around 1.0.21 was based on poppler, not qpdf. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263784 Title: PDF form data is blank when printed with lp To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qpdf/+bug/1263784/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well this is embarrasing; I've just booted into 13.04 and 'lp -d PDF i-9g.pdf' is now working... $ apt-cache policy qpdf qpdf: Installed: 4.2.0-2 Candidate: 4.2.0-2 Version table: *** 4.2.0-2 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status g@VMware:~/tempdir$ apt-cache policy cups-filters cups-filters: Installed: 1.0.40-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1.0.40-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1.0.40-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Based on the above and Comment #8 from Tobias I'll mark this 'Invalid'. Sorry for the noise. Q. For the 12.04 'lp' issue, do I file a bug against poppler, cups, what?

[Bug 1263784] Re: PDF form data is blank when printed with lp
The qpdfview program is not related to qpdf. They just have an unfortunate similarity in their names. There was a bug in qpdf that could cause loss of form data in some cases, but this bug was fixed in qpdf 5.0.0. I don't remember whether 4.2.0 had the fix in it, but I don't think it did. Using qpdfview, I can see the form data on page 7. After using qpdf 5.1.0 to transform the file, I can still see the form data with qpdfview. I can verify that the way form data was saved here would have hit the older qpdf bug that has been subsequently fixed. Also, installing qpdf 5.0.1 would probably not be sufficient to fix this problem since the print filters were linked with an older qpdf. Most likely the solution will be to take a newer cups-filters. You can run ldd /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftopdf | grep qpdf If you see a version of libqpdf less than libqpdf.so.13, then you are using the version of qpdf that has this known problem, and upgrading to a later version is the only solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263784 Title: PDF form data is blank when printed with lp To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qpdf/+bug/1263784/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
