latex.pdf

Environment:

Poppler version 0.24.5 on Mac OS X 10.9.2, installed via Homebrew.

Issue:

When attempting to export a single page of a PDF as a PNG I experience a really long hang of pdftoppm with it using 100% CPU. Sometimes it will complete, but only after 30 or more seconds, despite the page being very simple:

   pdftoppm -f 11 -l 11 -png latex.pdf output.png

The latex.pdf file is attached.

You mean that when running 
   pdftoppm -f 11 -l 11 -png latex.pdf output.png
sometimes it is fast and sometimes it is slow?

He didn't come back to us, so let's assume it worked fine for him afterwards.
