Most likely the creator of the PDF set it up so that the form fields get reset when the document is opened. This is occasionally done with online forms to counteract the temporary caching of form data by most versions of Acrobat (Reader).

If the form is being reset by a resetForm JavaScript statement, then you can try turning off JavaScript before opening the PDF, but this might disable other useful features that the form creator has set up or that Reader uses internally. If the form is being reset by a Reset Form action, there's not much you can do.
