[PLUG] PDF, document viewer, Chrome, and printing

(Running Ubuntu 12.04)

I have downloaded a number of pdf files from a website.  In Document Viewer
they look fine, print preview looks good, but in printing much is garbage.
 Opening them in Chrome they look fine, as does printing.

FWIIW I opened one in gedit.  I see the following at the start of the file:

%PDF-1.2
%\E2\E3\CF\D3
1 0 obj
<<
/Author (ADP ICS)
/CreationDate (D:20132807174048)
/Creator (Postedge)
/Producer (PDFOUT v3.8t by Xenos, inc.)
>> endobj
2 0 obj
[/PDF /Text /ImageB]
endobj
3 0 obj
<<
/Filter [/FlateDecode]
/Length 2813 >> stream  ...snip...

Is this a version problem?

Thanks,

-Denis
