Bug Description
Binary package hint: evince
Whenever I open a PDF form, and make a change to it (any change, such as filling a field), and then try to save a copy on Evince, the resulting file is empty. Not as in empty fields, but as in zero-bytes-long file.
However, when trying to save a copy before any changes have been made, it works fine.
This is not the same as bug 299409, since in that bug the resulting files are not empty.
The particular form I'm trying to fill is http://

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
I have tried to reproduce the problem using evince 2.28.1 on a vanilla installation of Karmic but I am unable to reproduce the problem using SAVE A COPY.
Please answer these questions:
* Is this reproducible?
* If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?
This will help us to find and resolve the problem.
