        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

I don't have much experience with pdf forms but I found a kind of ducument
bakered by Acrobat that doesn't be rendered correctly in okular.
There are 2 problems:

-------------- 1st problem ---------------
ghostscript think that the font used by the document contains ArialMT:
gs -sDEVICE=x11 EstrattoConto_1256901690391.pdf
GPL Ghostscript 8.62 (2008-02-29)

while acrobat reader 8 properties says more characters but not ArialMT (I'll
include Acrobat properties screenshot) - immagine1.jpeg
The same for okular (see attached immagine2.jpeg)

--------------2nd problem (MORE IMPORTANT) ---------------------
The document contain a form that is compiled to create the pdf from java Adobe
LiveCycle Designer 8.
Okular shows that there are forms but doesn't show anithing but the page
template.... (see immagine3.jpeg)
while acrobat shows correctly the form with prefilled fields.

The document is a "statement of account" for credit cards so it's a kind of
document that is important to be readable....
