Public bug reported:

I received a PDF file in email and downloaded it to my Xubuntu 18.04
desktop host.  When I tried to read the document in atril, it came up
blank.

I downloaded it to my Google drive and was able to read it there, but
even downloading that copy showed blank in atril.

I viewed the document in my Windows VM with Acrobat Reader and it reads
just fine.

Atril seems to be the problem.
