Installation
Install the evince package, or evince-gitAUR for the development version. Evince installs the gnome-desktop as a dependency.
For a standalone version install evince-no-gnomeAUR or the light version evince-lightAUR for PDF support only.
Troubleshooting
Printer does not show up
Upgrade gtk3 to version 3.22.26+47+g3a1a7135a2-1
or higher. In previous GTK+ 3 versions, the printer GTK+ printer backends were included in a separate package. [1]
Zoom-in is limited
Increasing Evince's page cache size allows you to zoom in further, which is handy for large documents. By default the setting is set to 50MiB. Increasing the page cache size obviously increases Evince's memory consumption when zoomed-in.
The following command increases the page cache size to one gigabyte:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.Evince page-cache-size 'uint32 1000'
PDF texts is not show correctly
try setting override-restrictions
parameter to false:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.Evince override-restrictions false
Inverse search with SyncTeX doesn't work
Check that python-dbus is installed. After that ctrl+click should work.
