           Summary: problems with (ignoring) drm-settings (pdf)
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: okular-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: m.wege at web.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have some problems with a document that contains drm-settings. They appear to
be related, that is why I report them as one. If you have the feeling I should
split them up, I will do so.
I have a PDF-document, which has forms. I opened it with okular, hoping I can
save the contents of the form, even though it is forbidden in regular Adobe
Reader.
First I filled out parts of the form to test it. Then I used "Save-in/under"
(Speichern-In in German). I got the following message:
"Datei kann nicht in „/tmp/kde-mark/okularZQ6600.tmp“ gespeichert werden.
Versuchen Sie einen anderen Speicherort" -> file can not be saved in /tmp,
please try it somewhere else. The funny thing about this, I  never tried to
save it in tmp. I think Okular could not save the document because of the drm,
but gave this cryptic message. This message should definitely be changed then.
Saving the file as a copy worked, but did not contain the forms filled out. I
then noticed that I had to uncheck "accept drm settings". I did so, but the
same happens as above. So ignoring drm settings does not work in this case, but
okular does not indicate this at all.
So the essence of this report is:
- okular does not provide clear feedback about problems relating to
drm-settings and forms -> this should be changed at least.
- it would be better if ignoring drm settings in this case really worked.
