Bug Description
This looks very similar to bug 153428, but it does not seem to be exactly the same.
I am on Raring and open the attached PDF file with a form. I can fill in the form without problems, but if I want to save the form (there is only "Save a copy ..." not "Save", as already complained about in bug 153428) I get the error message
The file could not be saved as "...".
Document is encrypted
The issuer of the form has explicitly allowed to save the filled form. Adobe Reader on 32-bit Precise saves it without problems and with the filled fields (and I can load the saved form with evince on my Raring box and print it with the filled data).

According to the upstream bug report this is a Poppler bug, fixed in 0.22.x. Can Ubuntu Raring be updated to 0.22.x or the fix be backported to Raring?
Adding Poppler task.
