Bug Description

Recreate bug:
$ echo "\documentclass{article} \begin{document} $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ \end{document}" | pdflatex
$ evince article.pdf
Press Ctrl-P and choose "Print to File". output.pdf
Exit Evince.
$ evince output.pdf

What happens: The beta character gets pushed a few points to the right, on top of the comma. (see attached image).

What should happen: You should get the same rendering on the screen as when viewing the original file article.pdf.

Ubuntu 12.10
Evince 3.6.0-0ubuntu2

I do get the right output when printing the file article.pdf with lpr.
