Description Yuri 2018-04-16 21:44:29 UTC 
Okular-1.3.3 stores form data in pdf files and can see such data itself, but when Adobe Acrobat opens such file it only sees a blank document.

Found on FreeBSD 11.1, okular is built from the port.

Which poppler version are you using?

Attach such a pdf and tell us exactly what you do.
Comment 2 Yuri 2018-04-17 00:55:29 UTC 
I am using poppler-0.57.0

Pdf document: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the pdf in Okular
2. Fill any field, ex. Last Name
3. Choose the menu item: File/Save
4. Open the modified file on Windows in Adobe Acrobat
5. Observe that the entered form text isn't displayed.

Most probably a poppler bug, i'll investigate
