the forms would not be visible.
conditions observed:

- there is no "save" so use "save as"
hit the "hide forms" button; the data will disappear

close the pdf. close okular if u like.
reopen the pdf file; the data will not be visible
hit the "show forms" button, the data will be visible.

print the pdf document; data will not be visible.

i have noticed this going on for a year plus now.
in the end i always have to revert to some other dusty legacy software so that
i may retain my data and print out my forms
