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:

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