I’ve just noticed so it might have been like that ever since I upgraded to Linux Mint Rebecca, but I have no page borders in Evince: the white background of the page blends seamlessly into the white background of the window. There used to be a gray border around the page. Which specific style setting … Read more
I made annotations with evince to a PDF and saved the PDF. I invested many hours of work into this so the annotations (colored highlighting) is valuable to me. Now I must print the PDF from an OS X system. I open the PDF with preview and I can see my highlights fine. But when … Read more
Since upgrading my Xubuntu, Evince behaves weird: it doesn’t use its full window for displaying the document, but wastes a lot of screen real-estate with empty margines around it as soon as the page width doesn’t full fit within. I.e., as long as the zoom is set to “fit width” there is no problem, but … Read more
How can I recover documents which were open in Evince prior to a system crash in Ubuntu 16.04? Ideally, I would like to find a list of files which were open just before the crash. At the least, I would like to find some sort of history. I did a crash simulation on another computer … Read more

I love to use Evince, is one of the best software for visualize a lot of things, including pdfs. I use it many times with LaTeX. Also, before I could select text and copy it, but now, with Ubuntu 14.04 it’s impossible!!! I don’t know why or what happen, but the version available by default … Read more
Problem: When I get a proof-read pdf back, sometimes there is only one mark every ten pages or so – and that mark can be so small (missed comma, etc.) that I might miss it when scanning through for markings and notes. Question: Is there a way to search for or jump through the list … Read more
The new Evince for 13.10 without a menu bar mostly sucks from a usability perspective, but I’ve gradually gotten used to it. However, I seem to have gotten myself into a situation where even the button I normally use to bring up the menu has disappeared. I can print by pressing Ctrl-P, so not all … Read more
