Description Christian Persch 2007-10-22 18:04:30 UTC 
Steps:
$ chmod a-r test.pdf
$ evince test.pdf

Results:
"unable to open document"

"Failed to load document from data (error 1)"

Expected results:
Evince should tell me that I don't have permission to read the file. The current error more sounds like a problem with the file's contents.

That's actually all poppler gives to us :(
