Public bug reported:

[ Ubuntu 12.04, Evince 3.4.0, Poppler 0.18.4 ]

When I add annotations to a PDF in evince and save a copy of this PDF
(with annotations), I can no longer open the saved PDF in acroread
(gives an error message "root object invalid or not found").

As far as I can tell, this only happens if the XREF table in the PDF is
a compressed stream - a workaround is to run

    pdftk in.pdf output out.pdf uncompress

before annotating output.pdf in evince. The result can be opened in
acroread.
