Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

This is no Evince Bug. It looks like poppler can't access to this font, but normally this means that the font is nos properly installed, which would be a distribution bug. So in summary, first make sure the font is correctly installed and if so, then file a bug in poppler's bugzilla.
