I'm seeing the same error occur with version 22.12.3, running on Debian Stable (Bookworm) Works fine for me, which poppler version are you using? Created attachment 183874 [details] attachment-1199701-0.html When I go to 'About PDF Backend' it says: Using Poppler 22.12.0 What I'm specifically noticing is that if I click the 'Show Forms' button, the text boxes and check boxes turn black inside. I can type characters and click to get a checkmark respectively, but if I print preview or print, the entered characters from the text box appear, but the check mark doesn't.

For some reason you have a modern Okular with an old poppler, complain to your distribution, meanwhile you may want to test https://github.com/flathub/org.kde.okular and confirm the bug is fixed there. Hi, OP here. I'm still seeing this issue although my distro (tumbleweed) is providing libpoppler 25.08.0 The mark in the checkbox is only visible while forms are shown, yet disappears as soon as I exit the form filling mode. See screenshots attached. This is with Okular 25.04.3 Created attachment 183923 [details]

check marks no longer visible when no longer in form filling mode
OMG it works with Okular flatpak indeed. About backend also shows just one version of libpoppler, without the "build against" thingy that I get in the rpm version of the package. I guess I'll report this to the opensuse team. Created attachment 183925 [details]
check marks still visible when no longer in form filling mode (using okular flatpak)
Works fine in Neon: neon-user-20250803-0744.iso Archeo-bug found here (16 years old!): https://okular-devel.kde.narkive.com/CsL2v1HE/bug-184489-new-checkboxes-in-pdf-forms-not-displayed-if-checked Closing the bug since it's a distribution bug. Created attachment 183952 [details] attachment-1872710-0.html What version of libpopple fixes this? I just updated my Debian to 13 yesterday with the Trixie release hoping it would catch up, but it installs libpoppler 25.03.0 (with Okular 25.04.2). My wife who uses Windows also sees this behavior on the version she installed form the Microsoft store. I'm assuming I'll have to find a different installation method for her.

(In reply to mph from comment #13) > What version of libpopple fixes this? I just updated my Debian to 13 It is probably https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/-/merge_requests/1732 which was in 25.05 Reading the comments it doesn-t seem poppler is the issue, there's people using 25.08 and having it working and other people also using 25.08 and not having it working. Seems more a font configuration issue probably |
