Same problem here (using evince on debian), version 3.4.0-3.1, together
with poppler/cairo 0.18.4

Please fix this. I spent three hours filling in a form, and now have to
note it down *again* into another program.

A button called "Save As" really should *always* work. If some data
would be lost, warn, but don't prevent the user from saving his work.

Title:
  Evince cannot save filled PDF forms

Status in Evince document viewer:
  Confirmed
Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

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
