Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

If I try to open a PDF file created by the Windows OCR program ABBYY Finereader 
10 in Evince, the entire document is unreadable. The background is a colorful 
pattern, stretching the whole document even when the background is supposed to 
be white. The "file" command suggests that the files are "PDF documents, 
version 1.3".
This bug also exists in Okular, xpdf and ePdfViewer, so it might be a backend 
issue. Foxit Reader can however open them without problems.
