Created attachment 173082

PDF document with form

SUMMARY
I will attach a PDF document which has an embedded form. There are two "date"
fields which can be filled out in "Show Forms" mode. When that mode is exited
and/or the PDF is printed no value is displayed for these fields.

Saving the filled out document and opening it in Firefox (ie. pdf.js) shows the
previously entered values.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start Okular
2. Download the form from
https://www.hamburg.de/resource/blob/35658/bf5a89315bba109b3a8664d1ed4adcb1/arbeitszeitennachweis-kindertagespflege-data.pdf
or use the attached version
3. Click the "Show Forms" button to switch to edit mode
4. Type in some value for "Name des Kindes" 
5. Type in some date for "Geburtsdatum des Kindes". Like 01.01.1970
6. Leave the edit mode again by clicking "Show Forms"
7. Observe that the name will stay but the date will disappear (there is
another date-like field "Beginn der Arbeit" which shows the same behaviour)
6. Save the file and close Okular
7. Open the file in Firefox
8. Observe that the values are filled out
9. I couldn't find an option to leave the edit mode there. But the value will
stay visible in the print preview via Ctrl+P

OBSERVED RESULT
The values for those "date" fields disappear when the form edit mode is not
active. Neither are they visible on a printout.

EXPECTED RESULT
The values should not disappear.
