           Summary: Evince fails to save/print input in fillable forms (in
                    a specific case)
           Product: poppler
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: poppler-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: tiffany at antopolski.com


More specifically, when filling an interactive form, if the <enter> key is not
pressed after a given input has been typed into a field, the input still
appears to have been entered. It is expected that when you go to save a copy or
print to a file, that all inputs get saved/printed. However,  if you proceed to
Save a Copy or Print to file, that last field remains empty (the field in which
the <enter> key was not pressed after the input was typed).

Since I am proceeding to print to a file or save a copy of the form, the
expected behaviour is that all fields which have been filled should be
saved/printed.  

As I am using Evince to fill interactive forms, I am finding that it is the
very last field for which I enter an input where I neglect to actually hit the
<enter> key, and therefore that  field remains empty when I save/print.  I
don't always notice right away, so  it is very  inconvenient to have to go back
and fix later on.
