Created attachment 170385 [details] A screenshot of the de-facto standard annotation icons which are not supported SUMMARY Okular does not display the Check, Star, RightArrow, RightPointer, UpArrow, UpLeftArrow, and CrossHairs icons STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment/doc/pdfcomment.pdf 2. Scroll to section 1.2.4 OBSERVED RESULT Of the non-mandatory icons, only Circle and Cross are shown (though the others are clickable - so they are simply invisible). EXPECTED RESULT The other icons should also be supported, or at least a fallback icon should be displayed. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - Chromium simply displays them with the Comment icon. - PDF.js displays them as "[Star Annotation]" etc.
Hi This is a bug in Poppler, and can and should be fixed there. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/-/blob/master/poppler/Annot.cc#L2690 is where extensions needs to happen and matching icons in whatever language this is https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/-/blob/master/poppler/Annot.cc#L2636 needs to be created.
As Sune says nothing to change in Okular.
