Description bugsrep 2009-06-30 04:56:11 UTC

Version:           0.8.4 (using 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4), 4.2.4-2.fc11 Fedora)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586

1) Download www.uscis.gov/files/form/N-400.pdf.
2) Try to edit it in Adobe Reader 9.1.1 (linux version).
3) After editing just one form I was not able to see anything in Okular except this message:

Please Wait...

If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, you PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document.

You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows, Mac, or Linux by visiting http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.

Hi,

Okular uses the Poppler library to load PDF documents, so you should report the problem to its bug tracking system, at https://bugs.freedesktop.org "poppler" product.
This looks like acrobat using javascript to place content on the document, so in case unlikely it can be fixed easily.

Thanks for the report.
