GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 552875
Background not saved into copy after entering form data
Last modified: 2008-11-23 16:13:45 UTC
Please describe the problem: Saving a copy of a PDF document works fine. But as soon as you enter something into a form field and then save a copy, only the form fields including their data are saved into the copy. The whole background is omitted however. This might work for printing only the entered data but not for keeping the document including the data. Without the background the document is useless Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a PDF with forms 2. Enter something 3. Save a copy Actual results: Evince only saves form fields and data. Expected results: Evince should also save the background. Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
Could you attach here one of thoe pdf files with forms, please?
Created attachment 119405 [details] PDF document with background and forms (In reply to comment #1) > Could you attach here one of thoe pdf files with forms, please? Done. I will also attach a copy of this document showing this bug.
