Public bug reported: When opening some PDF files, the Evince window sometimes span several monitors. I have a vertical two-monitor setup (one monitor above the other). The primary monitor is on top and is external, while the other one (below) is the laptop's panel. In some cases, when opening a PDF, the Evince window is taller than a single monitor, sometimes spanning the full height of both monitors, sometime something in-between. If I resize the window, close the file, and open it again, Evince remembers its last size and position.
Evince is the only application affected by this problem on my system.
