Description Gregg Leichtman 2012-06-05 01:29:14 UTC

Annotations created within an Okular archive are not restored when reloading the archive.

I have tried this under OpenSuse 12.1 and it fails. I have also tried this under Windows for KDE (Windows XP SP3) it fails there as well. I also tried transferring an archive between OpenSuse and Windows for KDE and that failed as well.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Create an Okular document archive use the export menu item.
2) Open the archive from Okular's file open menu item.
3) Mark annotations on any text.
4) Exit Okular.
5) Open Okular and reopen the archive. The annotations are NOT restored.

Actual Results:
Annotations are not restored.

Expected Results:
According to correspondence with Albert Cid, the annotations should be restored (see devel forum email title: Re: [Okular-devel] Continue to Annotate PDF Files Between Different Operating Systems? dated 03Jun2012).

Comment 1 Gregg Leichtman 2012-06-05 01:37:51 UTC

Literally minutes after I posted this defect an identical defect was posted to the devel forum as fixed. The defect claimed fixed is: Bug 300197 - Okular document archives don't save annotations.

Assuming that my posting is now a duplicate and assuming that the defect is indeed fixed, this defect can now be terminated.

Wait Wait, i did not say that they should work with those steps, i said you have to *always* use export as new archive, i.e. you need a 3.5 step that is
3.5) Create an Okular document archive use the export menu item.

And then it should work.
