I am able to use Linux (Fedora Core 5) with KDE and Adobe Reader 7 to read, write and save California's Form 540 (06_540.pdf) from here: <http://www.ftb.ca.gov/forms/06_forms/06_540.pdf>

Perhaps you have a permissions problem with regard to where you are trying to save the completed form. When I open the Form 540 in Adobe Reader I get a status bar that says "You can save data typed into this form" across the top of the form under the toolbar. Or maybe you downloaded the wrong forms. Some of the forms can be filled in and others can't. See <http://www.ftb.ca.gov/forms/help.html> for more info. Make sure the file you are attempting to write isn't marked read-only.

Which forms are giving you problems?

Thanks Gus and the others who replied. Got the problem fixed. Rather obscure, apparently Acrobat Reader uses something from the LDAP libraries to decode the PDF ownership rights. It didn't do any complaining on the screen or in the logs about it.

After installing LDAP it works just fine.
