Exemple of PDF to reproduce the bug

Element of PDF form like radio_button generated with TCPDF doesnt work correctly when you try to interact with them through Evince or Okular

STR: Check URL field or attachment and open it in Evince or Okular 

PDF file generated with Libreoffice writer
 - no problems with any reader (evince, okular, chromium)

PDF file generated with TCPDF 
 - chromium - works correctly
 - evicen - doesn't work (see bug description)
 - okular - strange behaviour, do not act as expected

If anybody have clue about it to help to find more about the bug, share it please

Is there any reason you're using a release from 2 years ago instead something modern?

I've check which version of Poppler I used it was 0.53.0, can you tell me if you can interact correctly with the attachment please? (tested with Evince 3.24.0 and 3.22.0)

I had not tried because i didn't feel like making the effort if you were using a two year old release.

Yes, it seems it's a bit wonky, not sure if it's actually poppler's fault or okular/evince's though.

After few more tests, I had more trouble to display forms PDF with poppler

I tried to render a LaTeX's PDF with Evince using latest poppler version 0.54, and radio button still not have the expected behavior, but attachments works fine with chromium.
