Using clipboard in evince scrambles text

[Jens Herrmann]

1. Open the PDF on https://web.archive.org/web/20091228225958/http://www.bmvit.gv.at/verkehr/strasse/sicherheit/downloads/epigus_lichtamTag.pdf with evince and go to the last page (page 21)
2. Mark the entire 3rd paragraph and copy the text to the clipboard
3. Paste the text in an editor like mousepad
4. The order of words has changed now. One can see this already when marking the text. Everything is ok til the 2nd word of the 3rd line, then the next word should be "Sicherheitsvorteil" but "Früherkennung" in the 4th line gets marked instead.

The original text looks like this:
Fahren mit Licht am Tag bringt bei guten Lichtverhältnissen / optimalen
Bedingungen (trockene Fahrbahn, beste Sichtverhältnisse) offensichtlich
keinen realen Sicherheitsvorteil, da der geringe Zeitgewinn der
Früherkennung durch längere Zuwendungsdauern zum Scheinwerfer
paralysiert (zunichte gemacht) wird.

The copied text looks like this:

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Ubuntu 15.04 (vivid) reached end-of-life on February 4, 2016.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when using a currently supported version of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
