I guess, _the_ sample form is the one mentioned here:
http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Your_first_PDF_form_with_Scribus

Am I right?

but Adobe Reader responded:

Responded to which action?

You probably tried to submit the form from the standalone Adobe Reader,
instead of Firefox with Adobe Reader plug-in. Try to open the form with
Firefox.

Explanation: The PDF was made quite a couple of years ago, at that time
submitting of PDF forms was only possible from within a web browser with
the Acrobat Reader plug-in.

I have been told recently that submitting of PDF forms worked with the
new versions of standalone Adobe Reader too, but this has to be
confirmed by somebody whose knowledge on PDF forms is more recent than
mine.

Please try to deliver more details next time.
