Bug ID: 521228
Summary: Support for polyline (connected line) PDF annotations
Classification: Applications
Product: okular
Version First 26.04.1
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: PDF backend
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
ยง12.5.6.9 of the PDF specification <https://www.adobe.com/go/pdfreference>
documents a kind of annotation consisting of any number of vertices connected
by straight lines. They are basically the same as polygon annotations, which
Okular already supports, except that the first and last vertex are not
connected. The PDF specification refers to this type of annotation as a
"polyline" and Adobe Acrobat calls them "connected lines". A cursory search of
the Poppler source code suggests that Poppler already supports polyline
annotations.
It would be great if Okular could support the creation of polyline annotations
in addition to the existing polygon annotations. They are commonly used in
proof corrections to indicate transposed text.
