http://arxiv.org/pdf/0902.1610v1.pdf The border around author names should be solid instead of dashed. See line 5283 of poppler/Gfx.cc I guess the reason is solid style is not set. But I'm not sure since there's save/restore state.
Can you please attach a screenshot of the wrong rendering?
Created attachment 67291 [details] wrong rendering
Which poppler version is that?
latest git master I found it renders correct now. It was something wrong with evince. Sorry.
