Printing's PDF preview is almost never presented on Linux

[electronicoit]

Describe the bug When using the Printing package, its PDF preview is almost never presented on Linux; a white page is shown instead. Sometimes, after playing around with on-screen controls (page orientation, page format, debug guidelines), the actual content of the page is shown. But, if one keeps playing with the controls or window size, it disappears again.

Always on Linux, and with any project. Even with: https://github.com/DavBfr/dart_pdf/tree/master/printing/example

If I modify the code so that the generated PDF is written to disk and then loaded, the same happens.

If I modify the example for showing any PDF on my disk, the same happens unless it's a multi-page PDF. In this case, only the first page is shown but the rest remains empty (white).

Also, the Share button presents a 'Document Viewer' window with no icons on all buttons; only a red cancel/error/not-found icon.

To Reproduce Code snippet to reproduce the behavior:

// Just run on Linux with the latest version of flutter:
//
// https://github.com/DavBfr/dart_pdf/tree/master/printing/example
//

Expected behavior The full PDF is shown on every occasion.
