PDF file used in this example

DESCRIPTION

In some PDF files with forms, Umlauts aren't displayed in the print view. When
using e.g. Helium's built-in PDF viewer, there's no problem.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Get some PDF with forms. In my case a form of the district Office for motor
vehicle registration, I'll attach it
2. View it using Okular
3. Show forms
4. Enter some words containing Umlauts, in my example "Steinmühlenweg" (cf.
form_entered.png)
5. Hide the forms

OBSERVED RESULT

Instead of "Steinmühlenweg", "Steinmhlenweg" is shown. The Umlauts are gone
(cf. forms_hidden.png).

EXPECTED RESULT

See what I entered obviously.

Operating System (available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a
terminal window):
