Title:
  Improper handling of watermarks in PDFs

Status in Evince:
  Unknown
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  Expected behavior: The watermark in the PDF that is being viewed in
  the accompanying screenshot should only show when printed, not viewed
  on a PC.

  What happened instead: See enclosed screenshot.

  The PDFs that I have seen exhibit this problem are found on the
  "Amazing Spider-Man: The Complete Collection" DVD-ROM, published by
  Graphic Imaging Technology, now out of print.

  In the README for the DVD-ROM, it said that there would be a "MARVEL"
  watermark on each page when you printed it; however, these watermarks
  would not appear when viewing the pages on your PC, assuming you were
  using Adobe Reader 6.0 or later.

  I can personally verify that, when using the latest version of Adobe
  Reader on Windows, the watermarks behave as described: they only
  appear on the printed copy, not when viewing it on your screen.

  However, when viewing it in Evince, the watermarks appear onscreen
  (see screenshot). I have not seen any way to hide them.
