I confirm that eform-0410-1.pdf is now working with evince 3.10.3,
available with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Thar. You cannot save the file
under the same name, but you can save it under a different name (that is
another bug).

Evince still can't save filled in forms in ubuntu 14.04. This is using
GNOME Document Viewer 3.10.3. I don't get any error but you simply lose
the information you have filled in.
The simplest workaround is to use okular instead it seems.

I have this problem as well.
I can print the pdf, and normal Adobe Reader can open and edit the
resulting document, so I'm fairly sure this is an oversight in evince.

Testing the document linked in Comment #17 (fw4.pdf) works for me. I am

I needed a fix for this, so I made the attached bash script. Open your
PDF files with this script and it will decrypt the file (overwriting the
original) and open the decrypted file. Forms on decrypted PDFs can be
saved.
For me, this is an adequate fix, because the encryption only seems to

This is definitely not a duplicate of bug #477644. That bug concerns

I've just marked as a duplicate of #477644. I think this is correct -
certainly the symptoms are the same for both reports.
That bug has a workaround which works for me:

I should add that is of course possible to save to PDF by "printing" the
PDF to file. But this also removes the form functionality. For complex
formal forms, being able to save a partially filled in form is very
useful and desirable.

I'm running into this issue too in Lucid. The Dutch Chamber of Commerce
has downloadable forms that can be filled in, but not saved.
I agree with Bay that it would be good to at least allow users to save
the filled in forms without signatures and encryption. The PDF is
already viewable in Evince,
I think current evince behaviour is very confusing. It fails to save a
signed documents, but says that the file itself is encrypted, while it
is only signed. It think evince should either append non signed data to
non signed part of file and append non signed part is it is not present,
or either ju
Also have the same error. I think severity should be higher, many people
use it for filling official forms, like tax declarations, visa forms...
