            Bug ID: 382860
           Summary: Okular does not execute any basic PDF form action
           Product: okular
           Version: 1.1.0
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: PDF backend
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: uwestoehr at lyx.org
  Target Milestone: ---

attachment 106922 [details] is a PDF form I created with the latest pdflatex.
It fulfils the PDF form specification as is used as reference PDF for for the
program LyX. The PDF looks and works fine using Adobe Reader under windows.
Under Linux using Okular 1.1.3 there are several bugs. (attachment 106923
[details] is the TeX source code of the form.)

This report is about executing the basic actions of PDF forms:
- open the PDF and go to sec. 4
- There you have 3 buttons. Click one of them

result: nothing happens. This is a Save As button to save the form as a new
PDF, a button to print and a button to view in fullscreen. The first 2 actions
are essential feature of PDF forms. Without it most forms from administrations
cannot be used and users would be forced to use Adobe reader under Windows to
fill out and send forms.
