Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  1.) I create a simple LaTeX document (named e.g. sample.tex)
  containing a vector symbol or the \nabla character:

  \documentclass[12pt,a4paper,oneside]{report}
  \begin{document}
  \[
  \vec{F}
  \]
  \end{document}

  (Please note that usual characters will not produce the buggy
  behaviour.)

  2.)  compile it:   latex sample.tex
  3.) convert dvi file to pdf file:    dvipdf sample.dvi
  4.) view it running viewer from terminal:  evince sample.pdf

  Several lines of the error messages appear in the terminal window:

  Error: Illegal entry in bfrange block in ToUnicode CMap

  I am using the complete texlive installation (metapackage texlive-
  full).

  Note that I am not the first user who complains about this bug. There is an older report which however might not been fully noticed by launchpad team because it was filed just as a comment to another bug: see bug 234413 and comment #6 in particular:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/234413/comments/6

  There is also an essentially same  bug report for other linux system
  (Fedora) which may be very useful:
