Bug ID: 512793
Summary: Okular destroys information when asked to print a PDF
to the same file
Classification: Applications
Product: okular
Version First 23.08.5
Reported In:
Platform: Kubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: printing
Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
Reporter: contact+bugs+kde at yannsalmon.fr

SUMMARY
Of course this is a stupid thing to do, but Okular fails to properly print the
content of a PDF file to that same PDF file.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a PDF file, with forms
2. Fill in the forms
3. Print the PDF, in a rasterised way, to the same file as the PDF you opened
OBSERVED RESULT
Okular overwrites the file with a PDF the pages of which are blank.
EXPECTED RESULT
Either Okular refused to proceed or it prints the PDF as expected, showing its
rasterised content.
