Same problem - form field contents disappear when the cursor leaves the field. In my case, contents are completely lost.

When entering a form field, Evince gives a "bad form bounding box" error at the console.

I am using a bare-bones Tiny Core 2.9 (debian-like) installation + plain jane Evince + updated poppler/gconf/etc.

I have tried a few PDF forms created using Adobe - all forms work fine on Adobe Win, Foxit Win. Evince is the only form editor I've seen on Linux, or I would try the form elsewhere. (I'm searching!) I'll re-test on Ubuntu, but expect the same.

I'll join the bug-digging team here, as I really need this to work out.
