I had, in the past, a .pdf reader that also permitted me to fill in some information, when I received a .pdf file.
I have KPDF installed, but that seems to only have Reader capability.
Trying to install xpdf, with yum, I get this dependency error from rpmforge:

LibreOffice 3 comes with a PDF Import plugin which allows you to edit PDF's with draw and save as pdf.
I think what the OP wants is a program that can deal with the Adobe's 'Fill In Form' type of PDF. The PDF Toolkit (I have pdftk-1.12-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm on my system -- for CentOS 4 and don't know if a el5 version exists) has a CLI program that can do this (you need to dump the form information and create a FDF file). Otherwise, I believe Adobe's Reader is the only program available that does this with a GUI. I don't believe xpdf can do this and what OpenOffice / LibreOffice do is something else (an import of the PDF in the writer tool as a word processing document or something, which can then be edited and re-exported as a PDF).
