Confirmed with current git master. Why is this a bug? A time is a time. 13:14 GMT and 14:14 CET is the same time Why is saving as GMT wrong and as CET correct? Because the GUI does not show the time zone? Longer answer: I don't care which time zone the time is saved in. But the pop-up note simply says "13:14" even though my clock said "14:14" when I wrote the annotation. Setting status correctly. Yeah it doesn't matter what format the data is actually saved in, but at least for the display, it should use the user's own time zone. We invented the concept of time zones for a reason :) Right so the problem is not that okular saves annotations with GMT timezone, the problem is that when showing the timezone it doesn't show neither the timezone (so you can try to do the math in your head) nor shows the date in your timezone. That's the actual problem, because you would have the same problem with files created by other PDF producers. Git commit 92b7703292ab8cdef55be19524f916005b4c7dc8 by Oliver Sander.
