Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

Some documents in eveince do not print propertly, but they display properly on screen. The document located at http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/1.2.x/spring-reference.pdf is an example. The character gets random spaces between them, some spaces are negative, messing up whole lines. Attached is a screenshot of "print preview" where bug can be seen. This is even worse if you do a real printing. There, all characters are messed, not only "a few".
