SUSE Manager API Documentation showing display problems in evince, okular, and
xpdf

How to proceed:

1. Start okular, evince, or xpdf.
2. Open the attached PDF in the reader
3. Browse through the PDF and you will see:
   a. Three pages which belong to the table of contents
   b. A chapter "Sample Scripts"
   c. A chapter "Frequently Asked Questions"
   d. A chapter "Namespaces 1: activationkey"
   e. The table of contents continued

The pages b, c, and d must not be there. The table of contents is interrupted
by these pages. This is obviously wrong. Interestingly, everything else is
fine.

As all three applications share the common library libpoppler, it should be
very likely this is the piece to blame. :)

However, when viewed with Adobe Acrobat reader or GhostScript (gs), the PDF is
correctly displayed.

Another issue, maybe related: When starting evince or xpdf on the command line,
they give the following error message:

Error: Missing 'endstream'


Addendum:

Process the PDF with pdfjam (package texlive-bin):

 $ pdfjam book_susemanager_apidoc.pdf  --outfile good.pdf

After this treatment, the PDF seems to be "healed" and can be viewed by evince,
okular, and xpdf again.

However, this is NOT the solution! It's just a workaround.
