--- Comment #6 from Mikael <mikael at openstudio.se> ---
The padding arround inline text objects have obviously been adjusted in Okular,
but unfortunately without testing how the adjustment works when viewing the
result in other PDF readers, so now Typewriter and Inline note text objects
created in Okular are frequently cropped when viewed in for example Acrobat
reader.
See:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=334210
The font used by Okular for Typewriter and Inline note annotations is
substituted to another default font face when viewed in other readers.
Obviously the Okular font face requires less space compared to the substituted
font in other readers, such as Adobe Acrobat reader or pdf.online web-app. The
result is that text boxes created around on-screen text annotations in Okular
is to small for the text inside them when viewed in another viewer.
A way to handle this better in Okular until custom fonts are supported by
Poppler is to use a (much) more space consuming font face for annotations in
Okular, or to increase the padding arround Typewriter and Inline note
annotations in Okular. My testing suggest that today you need to set the font
size in Okular to at least '12' (in contrast to default '9') in order to avoid
cropping (for longer lines or multi-line annotations) when the font face used
by Okular/Poppler is substituted to another default font face and font size in
other PDF readers.
