Description S. 2015-02-24 16:26:14 UTC
Hello,

Comments created in a Writer document are not correctly exported to PDF, or at least not in a format that the Poppler backend of Evince and qpdfview on Linux can read.

I am attaching two sample documents. The exported PDF shows an annotation, but it is by "Unknown author" and does not contain the text of the comment I created in LO Writer.

Thanks for looking into this.

Per the discussion in bug 60126, this should be reported to Poppler.
