Hello! Not sure that this is a correct place for reporting, but I didn't found any related information to this.

Environment:

Vips 8.14.2 with PDFium Build 5715

What I need to do:
I want to load a PDF that contains inputs and checkboxes with user input in it.

What I tried to do:
When I load and save the file using PDFium and libvips the user input is blank, meaning the page gets rendered correctly but without the values of the form. When using libvips with Poppler the user input is contained within the image. I don't really want to use Poppler because of the AGPL license.

I'm not quite sure where the problem here is, but I can imagine that there are some flags need to be set when using PDFium to extract the input of the form elements. No doubt PDFium is able to render it. But that's only guessing as I'm not really into this topic.

For now I cannot really say anything else of interest. I can not provide the specific PDF file but I could create one to help reproduce the issue.

Thanks in advance!
