In the attached testcase (evinceligbug.pdf), the ligature comes from an alternate font as code 0x56, ASCII 'V'. Whether or not the ligature is blank on highlighting or shows V depends on whether V is present in the subsetted font that the rest of the word uses. One could argue that showing V is a feature not a bug, as it is a V that goes into the copy/paste buffer. But evince is inconsistent; if you highlight the lone ff earlier in the document (the one that isn't embedded in a word) it shows ff, not blank or V.
