This same bug (or at least what looks like this same bug) is still present as of Evince 3.2.1p1 running on OpenBSD 5.1-stable amd64, using the twm window manager.
My test pdf file is US Treasury Form 90-22.1 (revised 1-2012), available from http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f90221.pdf If (after downloading that file, which is a fillable PDF form), I type "evince f90221.pdf" then I can find no way to select one of the radioboxes for item 2. In particular, clicking on or around any of the options has no visible affect on these radioboxes, nor does typing any character I can think of. 'evince --version' reports GNOME Document Viewer 3.2.1 The form works fine using Acrobat 9.5.1 Pro Extended under Windows 7 Ultimate SP1. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531516 Title: Evince can't handle radio buttons anymore Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: evince When a PDF with Forms is opened in Evince, radio buttons are not handled correctly. You can click a spot and a tick mark will appear. Click an opposing radio button and you get ANOTHER tick mark -- the first tick won't disappear as expected. Furthermore, when Evince starts, I get this line once for each instance of a radio button in the document: Error: FormWidgetButton:: unable to find the on state for the button This makes filling forms extremely difficult.
