I ended up using virtualbox and acrobat reader 8. (everything from 8 up will read the form, though all will dishonestly suggest you update to 10 to be able to save the form info -- suggesting that you can actually save form data in acrobat reader 10)
That is a false suggestion, you cannot save in 10 without buying (or agreeing to a 30 day free-trial) of 10_Extensions which is what actually allows saving form data and will work with any version of reader from 8 up) Got to love the honest commercial vendors....
With acroread 9 in Linux I can save a blank copy of a form. However, I know I have saved filled copies somehow: maybe some forms allow saving form with data, and some not. A possibility, of course, is printing to file, which can be a PDF, which is no longer a "form". -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
