PDF files rendered with wrong color in Chromium

Reported by thib...@gmail.com, Jan 23 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/48.0.2564.116 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open the attached pdf file with Chrome or Chromium.
2. Compare with the rendering on Evince. 

What is the expected behavior?
The colors should be identical.

What went wrong?
The colors of the PDF are brighter with Evince. Note that Okular, mupdf and xpdf also have brighter colors than Chromium for this file.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 48.0.2564.116  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 14.04

I am seeing the behavior as updated by the reporter on Linux Ubuntu 14.04 using Evince and Chrome. However the same behavior as Chrome is seen on Firefox.

thibolu@: Could you please confirm if this works on any browser at all?

I can confirm it does not seem to work on Firefox either.

What does Acrobat Reader do? Is it the brighter or darker colour?

Tested on Mac, the colors seem to match Adobe, so marking as WontFix.
