from the evince help page:

	Forms
	  When filling out an interactive form, you can navigate from
	field to field by clicking on a field with your mouse. When you
	are finished filling out a text field, press Enter.
	  You can make a selection in a scrollable list box by clicking
	on the list box and scrolling to your choice with your mouse.
	  There may be some parts of a form that you may need to fill
	out by hand after you print the form. For example, you might
	have to circle certain things, or sign the form in one or more
	places. If you wish to do this electronically, you may want to
	try Xournal.

which, as someone else indicated that Adobe has changed forms so that
the free tools may no longer work, still may not help.

Good luck!
