Binary package hint: evince

After opening a PDF file full of Japanese text, all of the Japanese is missing. Layout appears to be correct, but nothing there.

My system is fully enabled for Japanese and seems to handle it for all of the other purposes that I've tested, but there's obviously something wrong with evince in this case.

I copied the file in question over to Windows and confirmed that it is valid there. However, the content is from my bank, and I'm not going to attach it in a public place... Is there some way for me to collect diagnostic output to send instead?
