In case a persuasive use case for this functionality were needed, here is a UK government form that makes use of calculated fields: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/459092/IHT205_2011_.pdf (Inheritance Tax: return of Estate Information IHT205).
I agree that the execution of JavaScript should be optional, and indeed should be turned off by default ... but alas I see there isn't any way to turn it on at present. Interestingly, there appears to be no alternative to using Windows (or maybe OSX?) for filling in a PDF form if the calculated fields are mandatory, at least I've not found *anything* after quite a bit of searching. In my case I'll write the computed values in by hand. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371618 Title: evince does not calculate total sum in application form To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evince/+bug/371618/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
