            Bug ID: 482363
           Summary: Checkboxes on forms do not show as checked even though
                    they are checked
    Classification: Applications
           Product: okular
           Version: 24.01.80
          Platform: openSUSE
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: grave
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: rafael.linux.user at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

NOTE: This issue is same than https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=184489
CLOSED issue

SUMMARY
When the user opens a form that has checkboxes, they appear by default as
unchecked even though they are checked. The user has to enter "form" mode for
Okular to correctly show that these checkboxes are checked.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a PDF form with checkboxes and enable "form mode"
2. Enable some of the checkboxes
3. Save document and close Okular
4. Open again same document (default view mode, no "form mode")

OBSERVED RESULT
Checked boxes are not showed like checked if you don't enter in "form mode".

EXPECTED RESULT
To show checked boxes as checked without entering "form mode".

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230613
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.12
Kernel Version: 6.3.7-1-default (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I discovered this error when verifying digitally signed PDF documents where
Okular showed as unchecked checkboxes that the user claimed to have checked.
Only when switching to "form mode" did the checkboxes show that the sender had
indeed checked them before signing the document. This is why this is a serious
bug.

Other PDF viewers do display ticked boxes correctly. It is not normal for all
the contents of the boxes in a form to be displayed (such as text boxes) except
for the checkboxes.
