Public bug reported: Evince has some usability issues with "locked" files:
1. When a "locked" PDF is saved, it cannot be saved to iself, as LibreOffice does for ordinary files. This is an issue with IRS and State of Texas filing documents. They can be edited after having been saved, but must be manually saved to a different file and the original file manually deleted -- a great opportunity for screwups. I suppose that's "reasonable", but being a mere mortal, I find that I often must edit these things, sometimes several times, before finally printing them for submission. Keeping up with the saved versions is a real hassle. 2. Besides being a hassle, it's a big time-waster saving an edited locked government form. A semi-automagical renaming mechanism would be a great help. 3. Edited PDF's are saved with the same timestamp as the source file. This makes it more difficult to distinguish between saved versions. It's also misleading, with potential legal repercussions for the user. There's no way to distinguish as to when the file was actually created in its new persona. ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1438011 Title: document viewer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1438011/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
