Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately it lacks some information that may help us in finding the cause of the bug. Can you, if possible, attach the file causing the crash? Also this may be a Poppler Bug (the backend used by Evince to render PDF), could you please supply the poppler version and type? You can find it in the Help->About menu in Evince.
Created attachment 117003 [details] Intermediate work template possibly converted to PDF by online service. Please note that I was able to subsequently open the file in proprietary Adobe Reader 8 that I downloaded for Debian GNU/Linux. Accordingly, the file sample attached *always* crashes Evince when I try to open it; notwithstanding, Adobe Reader version 8.1.2 (06/21/2008) *always* opens the file sample attached (and others from the same source) with no issues whatsoever.

It's a crash in poppler. I've just forwarded it to the freedesktop bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17252 Thanks for reporting.
