Bug Description

Binary package hint: okular

When I open a PDF in okular, I highlighted a passage of text (using the review tool's yellow highlighter). Then, I wanted to save these changes to the same file. When I saved this modified pdf, overwriting the existing pdf file, the file within the okular window went blank and my saved pdf is now a file of 0 bytes.

here is the debugging output in dbg:
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
[New Thread 0xb62066c0 (LWP 8981)]
Error: May not be a PDF file (continuing anyway)
Error: PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table...

Hi,
We were wondering if this was still an issue for you in KDE 4.2 and/or Kubuntu 9.04. If so, could you please install kdegraphics-dbg and re-obtain the debug output? Thanks in advance.
