I'm not using Ubuntu 19.04 myself and so can't say whether or not your problem is caused by Apparmor, but if you just did "apt-get remove apparmor" to remove the package, I'm not sure that operation actually disables Apparmor enforcement. (That is, at least on my Bionic/18.04 system, with a quick look through the /var/lib/dpkg/info/apparmor.{pre,post}rm scripts I'm not seeing seeing any logic to turn off enforcement during a package-remove operation.) So, you may still want to look closely in your system log files to see if there are any Apparmor access-denied messages, just in case removing the package isn't enough to eliminate the evince-profile restriction....
