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).
