Submitting this installation guide for someone new to wine. Currently I could only get this to install using a Play on Linux installer with workarounds:
This is the only software that allows users to properly fill out XFA PDF forms. These forms are used by a lot of government agencies and other organizations. You cannot use the mobile versions of Adobe Reader to fill these forms either. You need a windows or Mac version to do this.
On Linux installing the windows Version of Adobe reader on wine allows you to get this ability.

I could successfully install Acrobat Reader through wine as following:
winetricks atmlib
winetricks riched20
winetricks wsh57
winetricks mspatcha
Get the Windows 7 fonts, especially the sego* fonts.
for ex. from here www.w7df.com/7/download.html
Copy the them in /usr/share/fonts
execute command in a terminal:
sudo fc-cache -vf
After successful installation, at start up, select "always start with protected mode disabled" (not possible in wine)
