Attached is a sample PDF from our accounts system which demonstrates fault

On using cursor selection of text, the hi-lit text is rendered mirrored.
Using ^C to copy gives the correct text if pasted into another application.
evince --version: GNOME Document Viewer 3.22.1 (from Debian testing distribution)

This is a bug in poppler, the PDF library used by evince. I've forwarded it to the poppler bug tracker at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105259.
