@Sebastien re comment #8: Let me see if I have this correct - Ubuntu package 
and provide Evince via the "Main" repository. 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince

Last I looked, this means that the software is "Officially supported" and 
distributed by Ubuntu:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu

Ubuntu users have already taken time to report and add comments to this bug 
report. I suggest that it's time that the maintainers of the application:
====
Package information

Maintainer:
    Ubuntu Developers 
====

report and/or deal with any upstream issues.

"It would be nice" if the application maintainer(s) did the simple test
of opening a PDF form (<http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf works
just fine), in Evince, fill in the form (or at least parts of it), save
the form, and attempt to open the saved form in acroread, Adobe Reader,
Adobe Acrobat, etc. Simple, not difficult to do, and *then* the package
maintainer(s) - those who understand the development & packaging of
Evince - file a report upstream.  Thank you.
