Thanks, I can confirm that, it's due to apparmor it seems

Title:
[apparmor] Evince failes to create new directory on USB-Stick (Save
Dialog)
Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When saving a copy of a PDF to the USB-stick (automaticvally mounted when
plugged in, vfat) evince can save files, but it failes to create new
directories, claiming insufficent permissions.
The strange thing is, other applications (like gedit, or 'mkdir' in a
terminal) have no problems creating a new directory in exactly the same
location, i.e. the user should be allowed to do so and mount options should be
ok too.
Mount will show the the following about the USB-stick:
/dev/sdc1 on /media/anonymous/SPACELOOP type vfat
(rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks2)
When starting evince from the terminal the console-output does not show
anything when reproducing the problem.
Except for the one line that seems to be there all the time right after
starting evince:
(evince:30984): EvinceDocument-CRITICAL **: ev_document_get_n_pages:
assertion 'EV_IS_DOCUMENT (document)' failed
