Sorry, I just assumed this was the same as the original bug, i.e. an intentional and flawed design. I didn't think this was behaving differently from intended, I thought the issue was simply that the intention was a bad one. If you intend it to actually work reasonably (which I'd hope), and it is something about my system, well: I'm on KXStudio, which is a derivative of Ubuntu. I'm using standard KDE 4.11.2 and Okular 0.17.2 and pdftops 0.18.4. To clarify: if I open and change the forms myself, they persist on my machine. If I send the form as an e-mail to someone else, they lose my form changes. If I "save as" on my own machine, the new file reverts to the old form data and loses my changes even on my machine. Note that this is a case where the file I got from someone else started with some form data already, entered in some program other than Okular, and I was changing it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521533 Title: Okular stores form data in a different directory (possible leak of private data) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kdegraphics/+bug/521533/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
