Title:
  evince displays distorted text in some documents

Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in poppler package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  Evince sometimes displays text in documents in a very distorted and
  annoying form, here's what I mean in screenshots.

  This is a page of the book in google docs:
  http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/197580/distorted_evince/gdocs.jpg

  and this is how it looks like in evince:
  http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/197580/distorted_evince/evince.jpg

  and here's the actual book:
  http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/197580/distorted_evince/book.pdf

  It happened to me several times before with many books and I used to
  think that the books were corrupted until I uploaded the book to
  google docs and found it intact.
