Description Peter 2016-06-23 17:50:09 UTC 
Hi,

It would be nice, if Okular could restore the previous session (like Firefox).

TIA for your efforts,
Peter

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Fabio 2017-03-19 15:17:40 UTC 
I would also love this feature.
Comment 2 CnZhx 2017-12-01 10:14:49 UTC 
I would love to see this feature too. Currently I use the session restore feature provided by KDE desktop. But it fails sometimes.

Hi Okular developers,

I have been using okular for past ~4 years. this is my preferred and default pdf reader in all my systems. I never had any issue but the only problem with okular is it doesn't restore the previous session. I have to open multiple pdf across multiple folders. It will be good if developers can provide the solution.
Comment 4 Viktor 2018-11-02 21:53:40 UTC 
I an academic research and this is the only missing feature preventing me from using Okular as my main pdf reader. I am forced to use Foxit PDF through Wine because even the Linux version of Foxit doesn't support session restore. qpdfview does support it but its annotation capabilities are primitive compared to Okular and Foxit.

Hey there,

thanks to the developers of Okular it is also my favourable pdf viewer. As implicated by the previous comments, I´ d also ask for the implementation of a tab restoring feature. That would help and ease my work alot.
