I'm adding additional info (without reopening the bug). I just tested okular 4:4.14.1-1 using the f1040 PDF form from several years. For the year 2008 okular does not print information put into the fill-in form, but it /does/ for the f1040 for later years. I think this means there is a fundamental difference in the f1040--2008.pdf than for newer years. http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040--2008.pdf [Change the year in the URL above to get the form for other years.] But regardless since Okular seems to work for newer years than 2008 it seems to me like this bug can be considered fixed.
