I don't think poppler is the issue here, I've tested this in artful with: evince 3.24.1-ubuntu2 and libpoppler68 0.57.0-2ubuntu2 and couldn't reproduce this issue. https://imgur.com/a/YyDZD

Open in Evince, note how first page is blank Open with Firefox and note how it displays a nice intro page. Ubuntu 17.04 LiveCD works fine Ubuntu 17.10 LiveCD does not For Evince Zesty (3.24.0) vs Artful (3.24.1) which might be any easy thing to rule out. (I also tried the artful -proposed evince which has the issue too) For Poppler Zesty (0.48.0) vs Artful (0.57.0) so my guess is bug is in poppler. Given my testing in Fedora (C#2) which worked fine with same version of poppler and by downgrading the packages I believe this a Ubuntu specific poppler bug.
