This issue also affects acroread 9.4. I get the same error opening the
attached form, in Comment #1:

$ apt-cache policy acroread
acroread:
  Installed: 9.4.6-0maverick1
  Candidate: 9.4.6-0maverick1
  Version table:

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

$ apt-cache policy evince
evince:

I experienced the issue when filling in US Tax forms - sample:
<http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf>
Opened first in acroread & filled in form data. Later opened with Evince, 
changed some of the form data, did a 'Save as' - file saved. File opens fine in 
Evince, but attempting to reopen the file in acroread 9.4.6 (and Adobe Reader 
9.4 - Windows) results in the error message:
"There was an error opening this document. There was a problem reading this 
document (14)."

This is a serious issue as Evince corrupts valid PDF files & afterwards
the file cannot be shared with others that may not have Evince (i.e.,
Windows users with Adobe Reader).
