[Bug 242256] Re: Print and Submit buttons on fill-in form don't work

 

Fair enough...however I just tested again with Ubuntu 14.04.1 Desktop
live CD with the same file and it still doesn't work. Are you sure you
were able to push the 'Print Form' button in the middle of the page on
the last page of the PDF and it worked to open the printing dialog?

<later>Well I think you can close this bug, but for an entirely
different reason. I just opened the file with Master PDF Editor, and
those two buttons on the last page are javascript buttons. Which would
(unless I'm missing something) explain why they don't work in Evince. I
don't believe javascript support has been added.

Thanks,
Scott

Title:
  Print and Submit buttons on fill-in form don't work

Status in Evince document viewer:
  Confirmed
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  Received a pdf form to fill in from the doctor. The fill-in worked
  great (couldn't save a copy with the data, but that's a different bug
  report). There was a 'print' and a 'submit' button on the form's last
  page that did nothing when pushed. I've attached the PDF so you can
  see what I'm talking about.

  Thanks, Scott
