            Bug ID: 421235
           Summary: No way to share annotations
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: andreas at qvxb.de
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
It seems that there is currently no way to share annotations to pdf-files made
in okular with users on other devices. All options remove / destroy them.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open a pdf-document and add annotations like text and highlighter / open
.okular-file with such annotations
2. try to save it in a way, that others can open it and see the annotations

OBSERVED RESULT
saving as .pdf seems to not be possible / supported
saving as .okular results in the annotations moving to places they don't belong
(probably a version-issue between manjaro-repos and neon-repos (just my guess))
and probably cannot be opened by other pdf-readers
exporting as pdf removes annotations
printing removes annotations

EXPECTED RESULT
having the option to save the annotations as part of the pdf-file

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: -
macOS: -
Linux/KDE Plasma: kde-neon 5.18 user edition / manjaro-kde user edition (both
up to date)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.69.0
Qt Version: 5.14.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
the annotations aren't there in html and Open-Document exports as well.
