I'm running Okular 0.20.2
on Ubuntu 12.04, I made some annotations to a PDF file and when I try to save a copy of it with Save as
(to preserve the annotations), I get the message:
Your annotations will not be exported.
You can export the annotated document using File -> Export As -> Document Archive
I'm not sure why this happens since Okular should be able to save annotations since version 0.15.
That same page says something about how Okular
should have been built using Poppler
version 0.20 or later, but I'm not sure how to check this.
apt-cache showpkg okular
and take a look at the Dependencies section. – Jos Mar 12 '15 at 21:11apt-cache policy libpoppler*
. As explained in this Q&A you will need liboppler 0.20+ and an Okular release built against it to annotate PDF files directly. – Glutanimate Mar 13 '15 at 09:40
