For the time being (cups-filters 1.17.4) I have now applied a solution where pdftopdf detects PDF forms using QPDF (thanks to Tobias Hoffmann, smilingthax) and if there is a form uses and external utility for the flattening, preferrably pdftocairo, if not present, Ghostscript. After the flattening the original treatment by QPDF is performed.
If none of the utilities is available, no form-flattening is performed (but as cups-filters-core-drivers depends on poppler-utils, pdftocairo is always there). The originally planned QPDF-based solution is still in the works and will most probably added in a later release of cups-filters. Therefore the QPDF task stays open. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1564249 Title: Cannot print a PDF with AcroForms using fit-to-page To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1564249/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
