            Bug ID: 364603
           Summary: Form field max length override
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.24.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
               URL: https://www.co-operativebank.co.uk/assets/pdf/bank/bus
                    iness/community/community-directplus-app.pdf
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: PDF backend
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: cputtick at gmail.com

Some form fields appear to have poorly considered max lengths imposed, making
the form unusable for its intended purpose e.g. it's not possible to enter the
requested information because of the field length limit. See the URL above for
an example. It would be great to have an option to ignore max field length,
maybe wrapped into ignore DRM option.

NB Am assuming this is not a bug although ,  given age of the form,  you'd
think someone else would have experienced this issue in another PDF reader,,
reported it to the bank and it would have been fixed by now.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attached document
2. Enable forms
3. Attempt to enter more than 14 chars in Town
4. swear loudly

Actual Results:  
Can't enter actual town name of a entirely reasonable length 

Expected Results:  
Would be able to enter the town name, by using an option that ignores form
field max length in some way
