Description Marcus 2009-11-24 18:03:32 UTC 
With i93190 the export of placeholders was dropped for PDF export.

I would like to see them exported again but as a kind of input fields. These are
used in PDF documents to provider the user a way to fill-in text in special gaps
and then to print the PDF document incl. the entered text.

@FL: Please have a look if and how this could be implemented. Maybe another
option in "File - PDF as Export" is helpful to enable/disable this export.

in Addition it would be great if this feature could be implemented as an option.
Like the Print advanced Option "Content - Text placeholders".

So you have the decision to export it or not.
