I have tried both Evince and the GIMP.

Evince was fine started from the GUI. When started from the CLI it was fine at 
first, but around the 6th page I looked at it crashed thus:

l...@tux:~$ evince KXTG7531-MUL.PDF
Floating point exception
l...@tux:~$

The GIMP failed, but with a different error message from that you got, which 
was the same both when started from the GUI and when started from the CLI.  A 
box came up saying:

GIMP Message
Opening 'home/lisi/KXTG7531-MUL.PDF'  failed: Portable Document Format plug-In 
could not open image.
