PDT Test case (Flyer A5 size intended to advertise a scouting section)

Original message:

I'm using evince 3.6.0 on a Ubuntu 12.10 system on a Dell inspiron 1545,
pentium dual core CPU T4400 & the graphics reported as Mobile Intel® GM45
Express Chipset x86/MMX/SSE2 .

I've found that some .pdf's are not fully displaying on evince. I'm a Scout
leader in the UK & I created a flyer using the print centre available to
leaders. The flyer consists of a background with images & then boxes containing
contact details, venue's etc. The background poster is displaying, but not the
boxes with the other information. Does not relate to all of the posters /
flyers created using the software on the site.

Using the same laptop I've viewed the whole .pdf flyer using ImageMagick
(display), but also found that gimp (2.8) suffers from the same problem & only
displays the background images.

Strangely enough the whole .pdf flyer displays well on my android phone using
kindle.

The problem does not seem to be related to file size, as evince is happily
displaying some files that are much larger. 

One of the flyers with the problem is attached to this report. 

Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can help in any way further.
