Description

Which app is your issue for

Document Scanner

Version

1.14.5 Build 121

What platform are you using?

Android

OS Version

Android 14
Software Version: U1TPNS34.26-78-3-15

What happened?

When importing a filled PDF, all texts in the fillable fields are erased.

This is not an issue on my Google Pixel 7 Pro but, has been an issue on multiple Motorola brand phones.
I have exported the settings from one phone to the other but, the issue persists on the Motorola phones.

I have tried filling out the PDF on different apps but the text is always removed.
