"I tried to read a pdf file but evince (and okular) are not able to read some pages inside. I tried to open the PDF with a PDF viewer made for another OS + wine and I do not have this problem.

Page 1 and 2 are ok, page 3 and 4 not, page 5 ok and after some are bad again.

The error messages from if I launch the software are:

Error: Object (25 0) is not a pageDict
Error: Failed parsing page 5 using hint tables
..."
