Description Gregor Mi 2014-12-18 11:38:07 UTC

I would like to annotate a PDF document with okular but the "Tools --> Review F6" menu is grayed out. Is this maybe so because the PDF file is encrypted (see Properties -> Security: Encrypted, Format: PDF v. 1.4)?

Can you attach the file?

Comment 2 Gregor Mi 2014-12-18 11:47:46 UTC

Thanks for quick reply. The PDF in question comes from my bank, so sorry for not attaching it. I try to find a similar one. I will attach a screenshot of the properties dialog for now.
I just found another encrypted PDF where annotations are possible. So it is not necessarily because of the encryption.

properties window of PDF where no annotations are possible

Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2014-12-18 11:50:58 UTC

of course it's not because of that, it's most probably because the file has the "no annotate" bit on. You can decide to not follow DRM limitations on the config dialog

Comment 5 Gregor Mi 2014-12-18 12:00:05 UTC

:-) I found the option. Now it works smoothly. Thanks!
