Evince doesn't display Forms generated with hyperref

Created attachment 147060 [details] Screenshot showing Acroread-9.0.0 on a Mac displaying the Formfields Following simple code snippet compiles a pdf that works in acroread-9.0.0 as well as "Vorschau"-5.0 on Mac, but not Evince 2.29.1 against poppler-0.12. \documentclass[halfparskip,a4paper]{scrartcl} \usepackage[latin1]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} \usepackage{eqparbox,tabularx,booktabs} \usepackage{hyperref} % \usepackage[pdftex]{insdljs} \begin{document} \begin{Form} \section*{Persönliche Daten} {\renewcommand\LayoutTextField[2]{\eqparbox{label}{#1} #2} \TextField[name=vorname,width=5cm]{Vorname:}\par \TextField[name=nachname,width=5cm]{Nachname:}\par \TextField[name=strasse,width=8cm]{Straße/Hausnr.:}\par \TextField[name=ort,width=8cm]{PLZ/Ort:} \par} \PushButton[name=button,onclick={calc()}]{Berechnen} \end{Form} \end{document} I expected Evince to render the forms so that I can fill them.
Created attachment 147061 [details] PDF that Acroread renders correctly, but Evince doesn't
Created attachment 147062 [details] Screenshot showing Evince not rendering the Forms as Acroread
Created attachment 147063 [details] Screenshot showing Vorschau 5.0 rendering the Form
Same issue than bug #535143, I would say the document is wrong even though it's handled by acroread. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 535143 ***
