Package: evince
Version: 2.30.3-2
Severity: normal

Hello,
when I try to complete a pdf-form (eg. this one: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-
pdf/f1000.pdf   - but it holds for all that I have tried) with non-ASCII
characters, those characters can be filled in but disappear instantly when the
field of the form looses focus (eg. when filling another field is started).
When the field gets focus again, characters appear. They are visible only when
the field has focus.
Some affected characters:
ě,č,ř,ů,ť,ď,ľ,ĺ,ň
Any advice?
Thank you.
