[Bug 1404973] [NEW] certain PDF documents display fine in 12.04 but don't in 14.04

 

Public bug reported:

I have a scanner that can automatically scan documents to PDF files,
which I use *a lot*. Recently when upgrading to 14.04, I noticed many
documents I've scanned in the past don't show up in evince, though they
did in 12.04. So, I installed a VM to verify. I took a screenshot of
them side by side to show you, and have attached a sample document for
you to verify the issue.
