Bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151614 is closed, but this issue isn't
even confirmed (I guess it's necessary to give it at least this status - the
other question is whether it ought to be marked solved or invalid after the
saving of annotations if implemented and released). I guess a lot of people
have lost some thousand hours of work as the behavior is really
counter-intuitive (a "<b>universal</b> document viewer" dealing with the
"<b>portable</b> document format", I'd like to see the person thinking about
checking the docs whether annotations are (statically) (ex)portable to the same
set of appilcations the annotated pdf is). Nevertheless as reinventing the
wheel seems to be a common sport for pdf viewer writer  - and okular is still
the best free tool -, a lot of people depend on okular due to it's unique
annotation feature, or reach into their pockets or go back to windows - or
whatever horrible scenario you can imagine.
