With my document (a tax document I'd rather not share), evince fails to render the text, showing various odd lines, shadings, etc. in place of the text. I *think* xpdf renders it correctly for about 3 seconds, and then crashes. For the few seconds I see it, it appears correct. Adobe Acrobat Reader (acroread) has no problem with it on a 32-bit system, but I really don't want to clutter my 64-bit system with all of the 32-bit libraries for a single application.
