This has been reported in the Ubuntu bug tracker by wch:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/902033

It is reproducible on Ubuntu 11.10 with evince 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 and
epdfview 0.1.8-1 (poppler 0.16.7-2ubuntu2)

Ubuntu bug report:
I'm creating some PDF files with dots of 0 size. In evince, they're visible: 
they're pretty large and off-center. In other viewers, such as Mac Preview and 
Adobe Reader on Mac, the dots are not visible.

This code will generate a test file in R. There is a line of 10 dots
going from lower left to upper right that should be visible. There's
another line of 0mm dots going from upper left to lower right, and they
should not be visible.

library(grid)
pdf("dotsizetest.pdf", width=4, height=4)
x <- y <- 1:10
pushViewport(plotViewport(c(5.1, 4.1, 4.1, 2.1)))
pushViewport(dataViewport(x, y))
grid.rect()
grid.points(x, y)
grid.points(x, 10-y, gp=gpar(fill="black"), size=unit(0,"mm"))
popViewport(2)
dev.off()

EXPECTED RESULT:
One diagonal line of dots

ACTUAL RESULT:
Two crossing diagonal lines of dots.

Both the splash and the cairo renderer show the second line, but it is
true that the cairo renderer has much worse results than the splash one
(the second line in splash at least is just 1px wide)
