[Bug 1327534] [NEW] Upon opening some pdf-files Evince causes the PC to freeze completely

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After opening couple dozen pdf files one after another (closing previous
before) a random pdf caused the whole system to freeze, totally. Had to
force shutdown from the power button, losing all my work. After boot the
same document opens fine. The unpredictability of which pdf file will
freeze the system next makes using Evince a bad gamble.
