I think evince just uses the default fontconfig substitutions. You can
modify (or create) /etc/fonts/local.conf and alias fonts to your heart's
content, using this syntax:

<alias>
    <family>Font A</family>
    <accept><family>Font B</family></accept>
</alias>

I believe the file should be similar to /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
