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.

It seems to be related to these bug reports:
