I booted d755-5 (focal/20.04) and had a play.
On that box the Settings->Behaviour->Restore.Bookmarks appeared to make no 
difference. I tried it many times, reduced the "Save database interval" to 0, 
then 1 and it wasn't working for a "ubuntu beginner's guide (makeuseof)" pdf.  
(I wasn't really waiting, expecting settings to not need me to wait)

On my main d960 (groovy/20.10) it worked as you suggested @thedoctar,
and I didn't wait for anything.

I returned to d755-5 & re-opened the pdf, ensured settings
(Restore.Bookmarks on, Save.Database.interval=1min; (Restore.per-file-
settings was now on as I'd played with many settings earlier), made a
new bookmark (again), and this time went for a walk.. On return I exited
program, then on entry of program - this time I had saved pages.  I
exited program, and re-started it, and could select from saved contents
a page & it'd open doc & jump to that page :)


The d755-5 is an old re-used /home partition (last formatted on opensuse 11 I 
think) with lots of gnome2/KDE4/.. config setup, which possibly is having 
influence??  I'll aim to re-test on a cleaner box/install when I can.

Either way - we have likely have
 - a work-around for support purposes, 
 - maybe even a need to document in Lubuntu manual?
