"Evince cannot read the pdf format created with Adobe 8.1.3
This results in the file displaying the below message. Presumably, this is the
message that Adobe Reader 8.1.3 and higher will save into the pdf files for
readers that are only familiar with older pdf formats. This kind of
monopolizing is typical of closed source programs.

This is a problem on all pdf readers, except newer adobe products. I have
checked google's pdf reader, evince and foxit, which all seem to not work.
However adobe pdf reader 9 reads this file."
