I haven't checked, but the "Adobe Reader" (port: acroread,
e. g. acroread9) should be able to do this, as PDF 1.6
support is in that product since version 7 (Jan. 2005).

I'm not sure if it would be "less bloaty" to use a PDF
viewer coming with one of the big desktop environments
KDE or Gnome: Evince, KPDF or Okular... I'm not using
any of these, so I can't make better recommendations.
Whenever I approach the border of what xpdf and gv can
do, I use "acroread <filename>". :-)
