The attached PDF file is incorrectly rendered in evince viewer. The bottom part of the picture is missing.

You can compare the rendering with e.g. Okular or any other PDF viewer that render this picture correctly.

Both Okular and Evince use poppler to render the PDF, though different backends (or frontends).  I tend to think that the one used by Evince (based on cairo) is the one that has the bug.

I am confirming this bug, though it should be filed later in poppler's bugzilla.
Comment 2 Germán Poo-Caamaño 2013-09-18 19:15:32 UTC 
Thanks for reporting.

Looks like a bug in poppler, likely in the cairo backend. I have just forwarded
it to the freedesktop bugzilla:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69546

Please feel free to report any further bugs you find.
