--- Comment #2 from J.R. Oldroyd <fbsd@opal.com> ---
Further investigation.

Running pdftopdf with an option to override the built-in form flattener wor=
ks:

Both:
    pdftopdf 1 jr "" 1 "pdftopdf-form-flattening=3Dpdftocairo"
f941-test-qpdfview.pdf >f941-test-pdftopdf.pdf
and:
    pdftopdf 1 jr "" 1 "pdftopdf-form-flattening=3Dghostscript"
f941-test-qpdfview.pdf >f941-test-pdftopdf.pdf

produce the desired result with the form text included.  So it seems that t=
he
built-in QPDF flattener code is broken.

As a work-around, how do you set that option in the cups config so that it =
is
picked up for every print job?
