Comment 6 for bug 229412

I have the same problem with this pdf:

http://www.jyu.fi/static/fysiikka/saariselka07/pdf/Marsh.pdf

If I try to select page 15 to be opened or imported I get this error:
username@server:~$ inkscape Desktop/Marsh.pdf
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::length_error'
  what(): basic_string::append

Emergency save activated!
Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now.
If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org
with a detailed description of the steps leading to the crash, so we can fix it.
Aborted

I managed to import the page by converting the pdf page to ps (pdftops) and back to pdf (ps2pdf).
