Annotations appear at the wrong place

Description

Created attachment 124843 screenshot

When doing annotations (using evince) on an old pdf the annotation (yellow highlight) shows up at the wrong position. See the attached screenshot, where I have tried to annotate the headline of the text ("Time series properties of an artificial stock market") - but this happens for every part of text in the pdf (which I have tried). However I get the annotation window when i click on the text which I annotated and not when I click on the yellow area. Since the pdf on which I have noticed this bug is copyrighted I will not upload it here (you can download it here: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0165188998000815 or send me an Email if you do not have access to it). The pdf is PDF-1.2 and was created using "Acrobat Distiller 3.02 for Power Macintosh" in the year 1999.

This is not the first old pdf in which I have noticed this behaviour, however newer pdf's usually work as expected. This does not happen in foxitreader and apparently also not in ezPDF(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768246).
