Description Björn Martensen 2009-12-26 16:36:10 UTC 
i tried to save a multiple pages document with forms earlier today and after i finished filling in the form, i wanted to save the document with those changes. evince simply saved an empty copy of the file without any changes at all!
when i tried to save the same file with the adobe reader, it warned me about the fact that form changes can't be saved by any other program than adobe reader >= 9.

it would at least have been nice if evince would have warned about that aswell.
(of course saving the changes would be preferred ;))
