Description Dima Ryazanov 2009-09-21 21:37:34 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I opened a PDF file downloaded by Firefox, then tried to save it. I got the error message:
"File could not be saved in '/home/dima/N-400.pdf'. Try to save it to another location."

Why couldn't it be saved? I certainly have "write" permissions, and Okular created a 0-byte file with that name.

I'm getting this too.

I think it might be the same as bug 163363, which is due to firefox. See here:

Comment 2 Albert Astals Cid 2009-10-04 22:13:36 UTC

Probably, are you getting this error only if you
 * open firefox
 * click on pdf to open okular
 * close firefox
 * save file in okular
or also if you
 * open firefox
 * click on pdf to open okular
 * save file in okular
 * close firefox
?

Comment 3 Dima Ryazanov 2009-10-05 00:05:06 UTC

No, actually - I never closed Firefox.
I'll try it again when I get a chance, but I wasn't doing anything unusual.

Comment 4 Dima Ryazanov 2009-10-05 20:12:29 UTC

Apparently, it happens without Firefox, too.
I just click a PDF file in Dolphin, then click "Save As..." in Okular.

Comment 5 Albert Astals Cid 2009-10-05 20:21:04 UTC

Are you saving the file over itself?

Comment 6 Dima Ryazanov 2009-10-05 20:25:48 UTC

Um, no.
But looks like it only affects certain PDFs. Try this one: http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/N-400.pdf

Comment 7 Albert Astals Cid 2009-10-05 20:57:56 UTC

Ok, see the problem, poppler can't save files with Encrypt, and just reports failure, so all we can do is guess, this needs an improvement to the poppler-qt4 api and make okular use it.

Rewriting the bug subject to make it clearer
