Public bug reported: I am attaching a screenshot for reference. I have to have these working because they are my bank statements.
I have tested this same file on Fedora and OpenSuse using LiveCD's of their OS's and it works perfectly there I can open these pdf's using xpdf. I can not open them using Gimp. Gimp displays the same as Evince. So it must be something shared between Gimp and Evince but not xpdf. Something Gnome related or something Unity related possibly as the other 2 distributions use Gnome 3. I have seen some other bugs already posted about this but it says a fix was released. My system is up to date.
