Bug#527548: evince saves empty files for certain PDF files

[Chun-Chung Chen]

Package: evince
Version: 2.24.2-2+b1
Severity: normal

When using "Save a copy..." to save certain PDF files, the files created are empty.
An example can be found at:

        http://www.all-about-beethoven.com/pdf/beethoven/furelise.pdf

Other PDF viewers, such as acroread and xpdf, save the same files just fine.
