Simply try to open attached pdf file with acroread and evince and you will see that evince fails to show transparency and gradients while acroread shows it fine

Tested with poppler-0.10 and 0.12

evince capture showing pdf wrongly
Comment 3 Emmanuel Fleury 2009-11-13 09:41:45 UTC 
Confirmed on Evince 2.29.1 (git master), Poppler 0.12.0 (git master).
Comment 4 Carlos Garcia Campos 2009-11-14 14:29:23 UTC 
It works perfectly for me. This was fixed in poppler 0.12, but it requires cairo >= 1.9.4
