Description Kevin Burton 2018-05-23 16:12:21 UTC
See the two bugs related to this issue that I created:


https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394620


https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23108


PDFs with annotations generated from poppler are NOT usable on other PDF readers.

I think this bug is actually dangerous as users work with a PDF only to realize (possibly years later) that their data is missing.

There was a patch in the above bug from 9 years ago but it's unclear if it was merged.
